Description of problem:
Eclipse fails to start.  I believe it will start on a fresh Fedora 24 x86_64 installation, my installation is an in-place upgrade for many Fedora releases but it still should work I guess.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
eclipse-platform-4.6.0-0.6.git201605092000.fc24.x86_64
freemarker-2.3.23-2.fc24.noarch

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
rm -rf ~/workspace ~/.eclipse;eclipse

Actual results:
It asks for the workspace directory.
An error has occured.  See the log file /home/lace/workspace/.metadata/.log.

Expected results:
Started Eclipse.

Additional info:
Comment 1 Jan Kratochvil 2016-07-17 14:14:20 UTC 
rpm -V $(rpm -qa '*eclipse*' freemarker)
has empty output.

rpm -qa
Comment 3 Mat Booth 2016-07-18 09:33:15 UTC 
Do you have any Eclipse localisation packages installed? Please paste the output of:

rpm -qa | grep eclipse-nls
Comment 4 Jan Kratochvil 2016-07-18 11:50:54 UTC 
You could check rpm -qa in my Comment 2 attachment.

Yes, you are right - I had installed:
  eclipse-nls-4.5.0.v20150804081228-3.fc24.noarch
  eclipse-nls-cs-4.5.0.v20150804081228-3.fc24.noarch
Removing them fixed the crash, thanks.

I have tried for example:
  dnf install eclipse-nls-uk
and that one does not crash.

dnf install 'eclipse-nls*'
does crash again.
