If the native JDK is installed the build of Eclipse should use it. It  
auto-detects which jdk's are installed and the native jdk is on the top of  
the list of preferred jdk's.

If you have no jdk installed I think it will install linux-sun to install  
native-jdk to install eclipse. This will take a couple of days on my  
computer. :-)
