Eclipse "Unable to load default SVN Client"

Monday, January 5, 2009

After performing a fresh install of Eclipse Ganymede and Subclipse on Fedora 10, I get the error "Unable to load default SVN Client" when trying to import a project. After installing "JavaHL Adapter", "SVNKit" and "JNA Library" whatever those are it now works. Surely these should be flagged as "required" rather than "optional" or "recommended"?

From my experience, you're better off using the native bindings. Just make sure that /usr/lib/libsvnjavahl-1.so is installed, and that you pass -Djava.library.path=/usr/lib to Eclipse's JVM.
