No new version of PDT with indigo?

Question

With the eclipse indigo release around the corner, I checked the download page. It does not seem to have a link to PDT. Does this mean there wont be a new PDT version anytime soon? Cant find anything in google.

Answer 1

"Eclipse for PHP Developers" package will not be released since EPP(Eclipse Packaging Project) removed it.
PDT 3.0 for Indigo itself will be released on time.

I could only install the package when I started as root. That is because I installed Eclipse in /usr/lib/eclipse/. – Magaretmagas

Answer 3

Due to lack of a package maintainer for the Indigo release there will be no PHP (PDT) package. If you would like to install PDT into your Eclipse installtion you can do so by using the Install New Software feature from the Help Menu and installing the PHP Development Tools (PDT) SDK Feature from the Eclipse Indigo Repo >> http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo
