[Fwd: Installation problem on Suse Linux 9.1]

attached mail follows:

I had problems installing Eclipse 5.7-6.5 on Suse Linux 9.1.

The basic-rpm was installed correctly by

             rpm -ihv ECLiPSe_basic-5.7-65.i386.rpm

I could run Eclipse  successfully  in console-mode after the 
installation, but when I tried to install the tcl/tk-frontend, rpm had 
an error because a  directory should be a file and rpm tried to rename 
it. It seems as if the script tries to extract the files in the 
tcl/tk-rpm into the tcltk-dir in /usr/lib/eclipse_5.7/ but tcltk should 
be a file.

The Installation can be completed, if you copy the files from the 
tar.gz-archive downloadable on the eclipse-page containing the 
tcl/tk-files to the tcltk/-dir in the eclipse-installationdir manually. 
Then the tcltk/lib/-dir has to be set to exucute-right by root by

                   chmod +x /usr/lib/eclipse_5.7/tcltk/lib/

Then "tkeclipse" runs xuccessfully.
