Ubuntu 10.04 - Eclipse 3.2.2 - Projects list disappears after Ubuntu update

Problem description: After an Ubuntu update the Navigator in Eclipse is empty, it contains no projects. Creating new projects and restarting Eclipse (after reboot) ends with an empty project list.

Eclipse Error (error log file):
!MESSAGE Skipping builder org.eclipse.dltk.core.scriptbuilder for project PROJECT_NAME. Either the builder is missing from the install, or it belongs to a project nature that is missing or disabled.

Solution:

1) Install Java JDK: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/java-se-jdk-7-download-432154.html

2) Convert RPM to DEB (with alien)

3) sudo dpkg -i jdk_xxxxx.deb

4) reboot

Problem fixed!
