Mike is usually pretty quick with these things. This time he's taking his time, which means: he's busy, or it's tricky, or both, or he's fed up with it (this is unlikely) So, you now get to do it yourself. Copy Mike's overlay files to your personal overlay area, open the relevant ebuilds for low-level libs, and add eina to the DEPEND clauses. Rebuild. Make sure your overlay takes precedence over all others. > is there a manuel outlineing the overlay for e17? (it's rather large and > convoluted). Nope, the manual is the code. It's largely self-documenting and the only tricky bit is the enlightenment eclass, which covers svn, snapshots and releases for both cvs and svn. The ebuilds themselves are simplicity in the extreme where you just specify the svn module and the eclass does all the heavy lifting. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
