SAP ADT 'installing software' has encountered a problem - Eclipse IDE

When installing 'new software' in Eclipse IDE (Help → Install New Software...) and following exactly the steps as described here, I encounter this problem (at steps 8 - 9):

Here is the full error output:

An error occurred while collecting items to be installed session context was:(profile=_home_mohammad_eclipse_java-2020-12_eclipse, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=).

I had exactly the same issue on Windows, and It was because Eclipse was installed in Windows drive/Program Files. So I just needed to provide admin permission or move eclipse out of Program Files.

But on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa), I don't know what to do. Any suggestions would be really appreciated.
