I tried using andrews eclipse packages at first because dont like the 
idea of a noncentrally managed update stack. But the original packaging 
problems with installing only the eclipse platform (eg non SDK), user 
based extension directories, and the trouble with the speed and 
functionality of those installed extensions left a little to be desired.

As a result i have been running eclipse 
platform+CDT+phpeclipse+subclipse ontop of a Sun Java stack (for speed 
alone) for the last few months. I havent toyed around with the updates 
andrews made in the past few months. i seem to remember seeing 
changelogs in the rawhide update messages that resolved most of my 
issues. Will install this afternoon and report back with troubles if 
any. -mf
