Hello

Can confirm this. The Eclipse start scipt does not handle the different
dialogs properly.

Looking at it gives me a slight WTF feeling!

The beginning:
if [ -x /usr/bin/zenity ]; then
    DIALOG=/usr/bin/zenity
elif [ -x /usr/bin/kdialog ]; then
    DIALOG=/usr/bin/kdialog
elif [ -x /usr/bin/xdialog ]; then
    DIALOG=/usr/bin/xdialog
else
    DIALOG=echo
fi

The last one is especially cool, since this would echo the whole *dialog
parameter list on the terminal! But at least Eclipse would work!

But since kdialog uses diffent options than the one this was tested
with, it fails. Obviously nobody ever tested this with kdialog.

not work with others)"
