Android – ADT requires ‘org.eclipse.wst.sse.core 0.0.0’ but it could not be found

androidandroid-2.2-froyoeclipseeclipse-plugin

I'm installing the Android SDK on a fresh installation of Fedora 14 (Linux). I installed eclipse, and ran the tools/android sdk tool to install all the Eclipse components for the SDK. I was able to get DDMS to install when selecting it by itself.

And for the last component – the Android developer tools, I'm getting the ugly error message pasted below.

Now I'm Stuck in Eclipse dependency hell.

I've searched through the available packages in Fedora and I can't find the one that has the files necessary to satisfy this Eclipse dependency. Can anybody please translate what it is that Eclipse is asking for and what Fedora package it lives in?

The ugly error:

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
  Software being installed: Android Development Tools 0.9.9.v201009221407-60953 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 0.9.9.v201009221407-60953)
  Missing requirement: Android Development Tools 0.9.9.v201009221407-60953 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 0.9.9.v201009221407-60953) requires 'org.eclipse.wst.sse.core 0.0.0' but it could not be found

I've just encountered exactly the same problem in Eclipse 3.6 (Helios). After plenty of Googling I came across this link:

http://code.google.com/intl/es/eclipse/docs/faq.html#wstinstallerror

During installation, there's an error about requiring org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui. How do I fix that?

The Google Plugin for Eclipse depends on other specific Eclipse components, such as WST. Your installation of Eclipse may not yet include all of them, but they can be easily installed by following these instructions. Eclipse 3.6 (Helios)

  1. Select Help > Install New Software...
  2. Click the link for Available Software Sites.
  3. Ensure there is an update site named Helios. If this is not present, click Add... and enter http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios for the Location.
  4. Now go through the installation steps; Eclipse should download and install the plugin's dependencies.

(There are examples in that page for 3.5 (Galileo), 3.4 (Ganymede) & 3.3 (Europa) for anyone with different versions)

The exact same steps work for 3.7 (Indigo) as well.

Just use http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo for the location.

Juno: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno

Kepler: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/kepler

Note: Step four is not necessary. Only steps one to three are necessary.
