When I try to start up eclipse-3 I get the splash screen, then everything locks up - the splash screen remains until I kill -9 it. This problem did not occur with the 3.0.1-r0 ebuild, and reverting back to that fixed the problem for me. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run eclipse-3 2. ... 3. profit! Actual Results: The splash screen showed up, then an error box appeared and indicated that eclipse wasn't going to work. Expected Results: Actually started properly sun-jdk 1.4.2_04 (also been reported with 1.4.2_05 on the forums...)

There does indeed seem to be a lot of strange issues with 3.0.1-r1. I cannot reproduce this exact problem, but also have a look at #66822.
I think I have figured the problem. Please wait a few hours, then resync and reinstall the 3.0.1-r1. Make sure you install the one from 2004/10/09 or later. If the problem persists, please reopen this bug.
