The workaround "GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1" makes scrolling in the Package Manager in Eclipse 3.5.1+repack~1-0ubuntu3 go very slow, using Ubuntu 9.10 with the latest updates. Removing this line from /usr/bin/eclipse makes the scrolling fast, but breaks the Update functionality as described in the bug description.
My workaround is to start Eclipse with "GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1" only when I need to install new plugins.
