PlayFramework 2.1, submodules and Eclipse having errors about invalid package name

Question

Using PlayFramework 2.1 and submodules, I have an error with all my controllers in Eclipse :

"The declared package "controllers.website" does not match the expected package "controllers"

Of course, because in my module, I added controllers in modules/{submodule_name}/app/controllers/, eg: modules/website/app/controllers/

But as defined in the documentation of Play, controllers must have the package name "controllers.{submodule_name}" ("controllers.website").

And this results in an error in Eclipse for each controllers.

How can I fix that in Eclipse? Is it possible to rename the folder? or tell Eclipse it's okay in that case?

I have renamed my controller package too, just rename it, rename it in routes and `clean, compile, eclipse` — adis, Mar 21 '13 at 09:29
