Re: [e-users] Evidence and RH9
Read e17/libs/edje/README and recompile packages it mentions using the configure parameters that it gives you. In my case, that was the key to succeeding with previously failing packages. I had done so already, before compiling first read the README in the dirs. I learnt that from previous attempts to compile e17, which at the time went fine. Attached is the error I got, with all other warnings. If anyone has a clue please let me know, otherwise I will try again in a week or so, maybe the problem is fixed then.

I configured it initially WITHOUT evas2 flags as that says you do NOT need evas2. When it compiled, I tried to quiet it with the flag. :-) I'm willing to build evas2 and try again.

[e-users] Evidence in RH9
Ok so I've tried to follow directions detailed on http://rephorm.com/rephorm/code/efl Although I would love help, my purpose of writing this is to add to the discussion. I am also having problems building evas I think that's were the major jam seems to be conserning the EFL. I have built everything else exept evas and edje. Edje depends on evas if I am correct (prob. not but anyway). I don't really want Evdence but do want the iconbar. And I think if I get the EFL situated then I should be able to have both. Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you, Justin --- This SF.

However, it is true that you need much less for evidence. I got entrance, evidence and examine working though and was playing with all of them. I was intending to do a how-to on this whole issue but time is very short these days. The idea by Andrew Elcock was a very good one and I also did what he said. I emerged under Gentoo those packages which were not specific to E and checked out everything that was E related just before compilation. However, I would not suggest that one rely on gentoo packages for E-cvs related stuff as they frequently go out of date and if installed can be messy to keep up to date in combination with cvs checkouts. --- This SF.
