How to install Maven 2 plugin for Eclipse on 64-bit linux?


I have Fedora 11 (x86 64) installed with Eclipse. I need a Maven plugin, preferrably m2eclipse, but I cannot find out how to install it. I've tried going through yum, but to no avail (I can't even find any maven plugins).

On my other laptop, I've tried installing the plugin using yum on a 32 bit install of Fedora 11, and while the package shows as being installed, I still don't see it in Eclipse. I've even tried starting eclipse with the clean flag.

Could anyone provide me with help? I've got maven 2.0.4 installed. Thanks in advance!


Solution

  • I was able to install the core components of the m2eclipse plugin after I first installed the ganymede packages from their update site: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/ganymede/

    Apparently "Fedora Eclipse" is not a flavor of the ganymede build.
