Title:
  Eclipse crashes very often because of problems with GTK

Status in Eclipse:
  Unknown
Status in eclipse package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Especially when clicking buttons Eclipse crashes.

  This is regardless of 
  - the Java version (tried openjava 7 and oracle java 7)
  - the eclipse version (tried the ubuntu delivered 3.8 and 4.4 download from eclipse.org)

  They say the cause is that eclipse loads a mix of GTK2 and GTK3 libs.
  (cannot find the source now)

  Solution: simply add the env var 
  export SWT_GTK3=1

  
  Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS

  Package: eclipse
  Architecture: all
  Version: 3.8.1-5.1
