Last confusing thing I came across is this: Keep in mind that e17 is in rapid flux, things change and the overlays don't always keep up.

And other similar odd stuff happens from time to time. > > emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "enlightenment-base/e_module- > notification" > emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy > "enlightenment-base/e_module-tclock" emerge: there are no ebuilds to > satisfy "net-libs/exchange" > emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "enlightenment-base/e_module- > forecasts" These are still in the efl overlay.
