Eclipse Preferences do not contain an Ivy section after installing IvyDE

I installed 4 components from the update site http://www.apache.org/dist/ant/ivyde/updatesite mentioned on Apache IvyDE™ > Download including a restart of Eclipse:

  • Apache Ivy
  • Apache Ivy Ant Tasks
  • Apache IvyDE
  • Apache IvyDE Resolve Visualizer

They are displayed in Help → Installation Details → Installed Software.

There is an Ant section but no Ivy section in Window → Preferences.

Is there anything else I have to do?

Welp, I have the exactly same issue for installing IvyDE here in MyEclipse 10. I thought there is a manual installation available? Endless times of uninstall then reinstall through Eclipse Marketplace doesn't really help... - not_Prince
@si_the_nibba I'm working (again) with Maven in the meantime and I'm happy, so this doesn't bother me any longer. If you can switch from Ant/Ivy as fast as you can. - Gerold Broser

The only solution I found (and I didn't find it, in fact, I tried it because I didn't find any other solution) was to:

  • abandon the Eclipse workspace (losing all the settings and plugins I've installed so far, of course)
  • create a new one from scratch
  • install the IvyDe plugin as first step before doing anything else
