Ubuntu – Eclipse helios for Ubuntu

eclipseUbuntu

How can I install Eclipse Helios for Ubuntu 10.04? I downloaded the package eclipse-java-helios-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz, unzipped it and doubleclicked the icon eclipse. Nothing happened.

Unfortunately, it does not seem like the Helios version of Eclipse has an actual installation, you're just going to have to open the eclipse file (not the one with the icon, I believe) you wish to start it. You can install Galileo from the Ubuntu software center, and then if you want to install the CDT (C/C++) or the PDT (PHP), you can do that from the help menu.
