Eclipse Galileo click problem on Ubuntu 9.10

I've just upgrade my Ubuntu from 9.04 to 9.10 and I'm experimenting a very annoying problem with Eclipse Galileo.

The problem is that Eclipse doesn't catch some button clicks. For example, I've tried to 开发者_高级运维install a plugin and I clicked on next, and then nothing happened.

I didn't have the same problem before the upgrade of my Ubuntu version.

This is a known bug (bug 291257) with Eclipse 3.5 and GTK+ 2.8 (fixed in Eclipse 3.6). The workaround is to set the GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS environment variable to true before to start Eclipse.

I use the following startup script for Eclipse:

#!/bin/sh
export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/lib/mozilla/
export ECLIPSE_HOME=/opt/IBM/eclipse
export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true # workaround for Karmic - http://bit.ly/T8MIc
$ECLIPSE_HOME/eclipse $*

The important part is the line export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true.

There was a change in GTK with Karmic. Here are the relevant bugs:
