Steps to reproduce:

When eclipse is installed on a gtk3 environment (always?) it is using the "overlay scrollbar" feature which dos not reserve space for scrollbars and show scrollbars on mouseover.
Unfortunately, the eclipse UI does not play nice with that feature, e.g. I't not possible to select the last file on the package explorer with the mouse if it's at the very bottom of the explorer because the scrollbar overlays thet last line.

The issue can simply be workarounded by altering /usr/share/applications/eclipse.desktop:

Exec=env GTK_OVERLAY_SCROLLING=0 eclipse
This task depends upon
