Your eclipse in suse should have been initialized in multi-user mode.
which creates an additional configuration area in $HOME/.eclipse.

Are you using Help>Install New Software to install the SVNKit feature?
That should just work for free.

ECLIPSE_HOME is set ot usr/share

I have no rights to change that variable inside the preferences.

Is there a way to modify it by passing ECLIPSE_HOME at start by an flag that overwrites preferences?
