Hi,
I have an existing ganymede installation of eclipse 3.4 running on 64 bit kubuntu hardy, and I want to install myeclipse.
I see that the manual installation files are no longer available on your site so I cant go that route.
I dont want to reinstall eclipse through pulse because of my my bandwidth is limited at home, so I decided to download the MyEclipse_6.5.1GA_ArchivedDiscoverySite.zip file through my fast connection at work.
When I try to point the eclipse software updater at the zip and install myeclipse, I get the following errors:

Cannot complete the request. See the details.

Any idea how I can get myeclipse installed on top of my existing eclipse installation?

Thanks,

Currently available versions run on Equinox, not Ganymede.

[kipster]

I have been reading a bit about equinox, and it seems to me that Ganymede is a
specific release version of eclipse while equinox is a framework specification

[Loyal Water]

MyEclipse 7.0, which is planned to be released next week, would be compatible with Ganymede.
