Installing Eclipse and PDT

I don't know why, but when I tried to install eclipse and PDT last time I had so much trouble. But this time it has gone reasonably smoothly. I attribute the issues I had to being lead to believe I needed to download a package from the PDT web site which is not the case as these links show. Anyway, here are the basic steps. I followed the instructions in these links: Install Eclipse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EclipseIDE Install PDT: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EclipsePDT Install SVN: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=187739 The above instructions made for a smooth installation. The only thing I did wrong was not run eclipse with sudo when installing PDT. After the install returned a bunch of errors I just closed eclipse and re-ran as sudo, and followed the instructions to install again and it all seems fine. Also note that when you select PDT as it says it will say packages required, you need to expand the tree of second two packages before it will actually select them?? Weird eh?
