I wonder if its possible to fire a pop-up here that warns about the
dangers of using the eclipse update system on core packages. Two
different packaging systems can cause loads of problems as you have
found out. I am guessing you did this update as root as it should not
have been able to 'change' your system files otherwise. If you didn't
do this as root, then my guess would be that its executing stuff from
your home directory still.
I would try the following to locate your issues:
1) Lets look for bad file packages:
/etc/cron.daily/prelink # clean up prelinking for rpm -Va
rpm -Va &> /tmp/long_list # make a long list of all files that are changed.
egrep '^..5|missing' /tmp/long_list | grep -v ' c ' | awk '{print
$NF}' | xargs rpm -qf | sort | uniq
This should give you a list of packages that you will need to
reinstall or check.
