yup -= in this case it was the debian packages. they required libddirectfb to
build ecore - they also build ecore_dfb and thsu require directfb for ecore.
how many things actually USE directfb that use ecore? ie require it or have it
as a well supported primary display target? none that i know of. it might be
POSSIBLE with some - but its the kind of thing that if you are making a set top
box of your own - you might want, but not normally. thus i think it needs
removing imho.
