for some of my plugins.
Could you please explain me where the problem is and how to get rid of it?

It means that somewhere in your plugin xml you have something like:

<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.editors">
<editor ...

But you don't have the "org.eclipse.ui" plugin available to your
configuration. So it can't find the plugin to register your editor.

You need to import those plugins into your workspace.

Use File -> Import -> External Plugins and Features.

I find it convenient to uncheck "Copy plug-in contents into the workspace
location" - it then creates a link to the plugin itself.

Also, after selecting a plugin to import, you should probably press the "Add
Required Plug-ins" button to import any plugins that _those_ plugins depend
on otherwise you can get cascading missing dependencies.
