What are the plans for updating Eclipse and IcedTea in F8? Are they going to stay at their current releases, 3.3.0 and -b21, respectively, or will they get updates? Of course, 3.3.1.1 and -b23 are already out.
I can't speak for IcedTea, but 3.3.1.1 would already be available in Fedora if it weren't for stupid ppc64 build issues :( I think I'm almost there, though.
I ask because I'm running into some crashes with 3.3.0 on -b21. I could try to file bugs, but it seems like a waste of everyone's time to file bugs against old releases.
PermGen issues? Try moving eclipse.ini from /usr/share/eclipse to /usr/lib (or lib64)/eclipse and making it look something like this (the last line is key):
-showsplash org.eclipse.platform -vmargs -Xms40m -Xmx256m --XX:MaxPermSize=128m
HTH,
Andrew
