Android SDK for Eclipse running in Ubuntu 10.10

After upgrading my Ubuntu to 10.10, I got the same error as explained in http://sonalsantan.blogspot.com/2010/10/eclipse-adt-plugin-on-ubuntu-1010-after.html


"I found that my Eclipse Android Development Toolkit plugin stopped working. The Eclipse Help>Installation Details Menu would list ADT under Installed Software Tab. However, neither the Features Tab nor the Plug-ins Tab would list ADT."


Also, the installation of  gef would fail due to the lack of some packages, solution found here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1305691


Finally, in order to get Eclipse working with ADT plugin in Ubuntu 10.10, I did the following steps:


1. Exit eclipse if running
2. Delete ~/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_(your platform)
3. Start eclipse
4. Open Help > Install New Software
5. Add this sites:
      5.1 http://download.eclipse.org/datatools/updates
      5.2 http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/updates
      5.3 http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/emf/updates
6. Install GEF Plugin (previously add the site http://download.eclipse.org/tools/gef/updates/releases)
7. Install ADT Plugin (previously add the site https://dl-ssl.google.com/android.eclipse
