The "Java project with with existing sources" wizard does not allow to specify the project libraries; thus, an extra step is required to specify them. This is not very user friendly when the existing sources have a lot of classes, because the IDE attempts to compile the project without yet having all the required classpath dependencies.
It'd be a lot better to be able to specify the project libraries within the wizard.
