First time I tried it, I expected just "redeclipse", but the upstream
doesn't provide this name for some reason, and as Andreas pointed we
don't modify the upstream choice without a good reason (although I think
it would be good to make a symlink here). For example, we don't have
"cc" binary, or you can't do "loadkeys colemak" because we don't make
"colemak" link (the upstream calls this layout "en-latin9").
