Error description

  • After installing Eclipse (using IM) on a remote Linux server,
and then individual developers start it from their local
machine.  (So this is a shared installation.)
After doing that,  some of them might want to add some
additional third-party plug-ins,  using the Eclipse provided
mechanism from Help->Install New Software .
 This fails to install the new plug-ins.  (Copies them to the
proper location,  but Eclipse doesn't recognize them,  so they
don't show up in the "Installation Details".

Problem further documented in bugzilla:

Local fix
