Hi,
The simplest solution, which will allow you to have the latest version, would be to :
- go to http://eclipse.org/pdt/
- download the lastest version (icon on the right)
- Choose the "PDT 2.1 All In Ones / Eclipse PHP Package" package that's OK for you : Linux x86, 32 or 64 bits
- download that package
- unzip it
- and voila, you can run Eclipse PDT
Advantages :
- last version
- doesn't require root privileges
I'm always using this solution, because new versions of Eclipse PDT generally bring nice enhancements, and are not integrated on the Ubuntu repositories before a long time passes... And I've never had any problem with this solution.

Don't! Don't use apt-get for Eclipse. Instead, follow these steps to install it "manually".
