Eclipse update fails
Hi everyone,
I have the following message when I select the update function
in Eclipse:
An error occurred while uninstalling
session context was:(profile=SDKProfile,
phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Uninstall,
operand=[R]org.eclipse.platform_root 4.7.2.v20171217-1438 --> null,
action=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.touchpoint.natives.actions.Clean
upzipAction).
Backup of file /usr/lib/eclipse/.eclipseproduct failed.
File that was copied to backup could not be deleted:
/usr/lib/eclipse/.eclipseproduct
I have not used Eclipse for a very long time, but wanted to brush up.
It seems to have changed a lot in the last decade or two, or more
likely I have. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Running F27 on AMD Fx 8300 with 16GB ram AMD Oland graphics Gnome
Version 3.26.2
If any other information will help, please let me know. Last updated
Friday I think. There is an update pending right now for F27.
Regards,
