Fedora 20 How to Install Eclipse

Before Eclipse started with bundling Eclipse into EE, C++, etc bundles. There were pain to install Eclipse and to get all it's plugins right. Then the bundles came. You download a zip file and unzipped and off you go.

But a better way is to have RPM packages of everything. And that is done with Fedora. (That is also done in Ubuntu, but they don't have any modern version of Eclipse available.)

To install Eclipse 4.3.1 (Kepler)

$ yum install eclipse-platform

Now you can search and install Eclipse plugin

$ yum search eclipse
