I read Lars post about building Eclipse 4.2 via Maven/Tycho from the command line this morning:

Honestly, I didn’t thought it will work. But it did! Cool stuff!
Ubuntu Linux 12.04 LTS
java version “1.7.0_09″
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea7 2.3.3) (7u9-2.3.3-0ubuntu1~12.04.1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.2-b09, mixed mode)
Apache Maven 3.0.4 (r1232337; 2012-01-17 09:44:56+0100)
Default locale: de_DE, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: “linux”, version: “3.2.0-34-generic”, arch: “amd64″, family: “unix”
Eclipse CBI is definitively worth a try!
