When I try to import eclipse-java-google-style.xml formatter to Eclipse I've got a warning dialog about google-styleguide

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I'm having the same issue in Luna SR1. Additionally, I've noticed that the 
resulting
org.eclipse.jdt.core.prefs file that is generated when using this template 
lacks several of the preferences found in the original xml.

To Reproduce:
1) Perform the steps in the original poster's message to import the xml style.
2) Applied this style to a specific project:
    a) Right Click Project -> Properties
    b) Java Code Style -> Formatter
    c) Check Enable Project Specific Settings
    d) Select GoogleStyle
    e) Click Ok
3) Use the following python 2 snippet to convert eclipse-java-google-style.xml 
to the eclipse preferences format (xml2prefs.py):

from xml.etree import ElementTree
settings = ElementTree.parse('eclipse-java-google-style.xml').getroot()[0]
for s in settings:
  print '{}={}'.format(s.attrib['id'], s.attrib['value'])

4) Use the following commands to diff the actual org.eclipse.jdt.core.prefs 
that was generated by eclipse in step 2) with the expected prefs file as 
generated synthetically in step 3):

python xml2prefs.py | sort > expected
sort org.eclipse.jdt.core.prefs > actual
diff expected actual

The below output is the result of these commands:

There are a few false positives, but mostly this shows a number of prefs that
aren't getting imported.

I've been trying to convert a few of my projects from my own hacked together 
eclipse
format style to this google style, so these issues are bumming me out :(.
