Eclipse  in FC4 has been compiled with gcj java compiler and is a native
application, not Java Bytecode as the Normal Eclipse.
If you just install Java 1.5, then you will mess up the gcj java
evironment (See the FC4 Release Notes).
There ways to get the SUN Java and gcj java to coexist, check out this
page to see how.
