My usual strategy, is to copy eclipse over to eclipse-devel, modify the distfile and version stuff and keep the patch files. Then it is a boring sequence of make patch -> error -> redo the patch that failed. I believe some of our patches may no longer be necessary, like manualpatch-plugins-swt-gtk-os_custom.h and manualpatch-plugins-swt-cairo-library. After our current patches apply correctly, there is a new sequence of make -> error -> create new patches. I hope that helps. Cheers, Panagiotis
