I don't know if this is the correct place, but the wiki ( https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Eclipse ) pointed me here. I just wanted to inform you that it seems that the google-talkplugin makes eclipse totally unusable. It will crash everytime it loads webkit (which is about every 5 seconds for a normal eclipse developer, if I'm a good measurement). I was forced to spend a few hours of debugging (replacing system java, system eclipse aso) before I found this: http://eclipseandlinux.blogspot.se/2013/10/google-talk-plugin-presence-breaks.html and also https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=334466 https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100622 I realize that the real problem here is to handle this in webkit, and not crash if plugins are bad. Or to just make google-talkplugin behave nicely. But it also seems weird that eclipse craches because some bad web browser plugin, I suggest to make eclipse use webkit without plugins support. Something like: webview.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(false); I think they did this with shotwell, to avoid a simmilar flash related crash: http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/2183 I think this is a quite serious crash, since many people depend on eclipse to work and quite a lot of them may have google-talkplugin installed. And I can also tell you that it is not the easiest problem to track down, since it is not the most obvious connection. I hope this helps. //Snaggen -- java-devel mailing list java-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/java-devel
