Right now the ONLY way that works installing this plugin (and efxclipse together with it) is by downloading it via their update site:

http://download.gluonhq.com/tools/eclipse/updates/1.0.0

Any marketplace aproaches will fail.

Anyways after you installed it it can happen that you still have to check for the correct Java version to use this plugin.

The Gluon Plug-in for Eclipse v2.6.0 doesn't install in the current Eclipse, 2019-09.
That is documented at this link.

Currently, the most recent version of Eclipse it runs on is 2018-09.
At least the gradle Task "run" will start your App on the Desktop.
(I used the "Eclipse IDE for RCP and RAP Developers" download package)

Before you get started, try getting a simple Demo App running in Android Studio.
Then you know Android Studio is configured correctly & set up for your phone.
How to get Android Studio installed & up-and-running is out-of-scope here.

Back to the Gluon Plug-in:
initially it won't deploy to Android with gradle task "androidInstall" as the Android SDK is missing "Android Support Repository" which is no longer available with current versions of Android Studio, but the "androidInstall" gradle task console-log outputs a DOS command-line to download it.
Something like
C:/Users/.../Android/Sdk/tools/bin/sdkmanager "extras;android;m2repository"
After running that I was able to install an App on my phone, albeit with some ?Charset? issues.

One more tip:
to get Javadoc for the Gluon Mobile classes, add the following to build.gradle

apply plugin: 'eclipse'
eclipse {
    classpath {
        downloadJavadoc = true
    }
}
