Nagging from E-Live maintainers prompted some further investigation of evidence by me. I sent another patch. So evidence now compiles on more systems, including mine. It will segv straight away though. Keeping in mind that the code causing the segv is a strange mishmash of gtk2 and evas, and I don't know either well enough to untangle it, it does look like it is this evas modularisation that is the current point of borkedness. Evidence probably needs a little bit of tweaking to get it up to speed on the modular evas issue to get past that segv. Ghod only knows what other API changes have happened that will cause further issues with it though. My first patch was because I broke the API that broke evidence, so I fixed that. My second one as more out of curiosity and cause Micheal kept saying in IRC that I was not compiling it right, even though I was pointing out to him what was broken in the makefiles. I'm curious to see it running now, to see what all the fuss is about. I don't want to become a maintainer of evidence, and I have already put too much work into it. Carsten, Micheal, you both have cvs write access to evidence, and since you have both been arguing passionately and at length about modular evas for quite some time, I can only assume that you both A) know enough to fix evidence, B) are passionate enough to want to.
