[Bug 123064] Re: Upgrade to Eclipse 3.4.1

[Alwin Garside]

Actually, when using the dropins directory to install plug-ins manually
in a system-wide installation (let's say, you have Eclipse 3.4.1
installed in /usr/lib/eclipse with root permissions, and install jdt and
pde in the dropins dir also with root permissions) then afaik those
plug-ins installed there can co-exist peacefully with upgrade versions
of plug-ins that are installed in .eclipse through the P2 Update
Manager.

So, if you'd have eclipse-platform, jdt en pde installed from the repo,
suposing jdt and pde are installed as dropins, then you can update those
plugins through the Update Manager without any problem. The updated
.jars are just placed in .eclipse. So no problems there.
