Today I did 'pacman -Syu' and upgraded 'eclipse-cpp' package to 4.5.1. During startup the new Eclipse version hasn't discovered the default workspace and displayed the dialog prompting to specify the workspace. And upon startup it didn't found the PyDev extension, which was the last opened perspective and displayed an empty screen with the warning that the file with PyDev extension is not found. Not looking further which other settings are broken, I closed the window and restored the previous 4.5.0 version which seems to work as before.
Has anyone successfully done this upgrade? Is the problem with PyDev's incompatibility with the new version, with the package or with the new version itself?
EDIT:
the Eclipse packages in question are the following:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 98662080 Jul 5 18:19 eclipse-common-4.5.0-3-i686.pkg.tar.xz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 99325828 Oct 4 03:45 eclipse-common-4.5.1-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz

Did you choose your previous workspace? I would use pycharm for python.

Yes, I chose the previous workspace. There were quite a few upgrades of Eclipse, but no one has had such issues, which is why I'm asking if someone has successfuly performed this upgrade (in which case there maybe is some misconfiguration on my machine).
P.S. I'm also using eclipse-cpp, so it's convenient to have IDEs for both languages in one workbench.

I only have eclipse-java and the upgrade seems fine to me.

Will wait if someone reports the same about eclipse-cpp (especially with PyDev extension). Since the last Eclipse repackaging cpp and and java packages seem like rather different.
