Alternative way for installing EFL

This worked just fine with Ubuntu 8.04. First, add the repository from this older guide with your respective ubuntu version. Then...


sudo apt-get install libevas0 libecore0 libedje0 libedje-bin libeet0 libeet-bin libewl1 libetk1 libemotion0 libepsilon0 libefreet0 efl-dev e17-devel-extras



If you have installed the needed libraries from this post (the first command listed), then you should be able to compile anything checked out from cvs.

Just did this on a fresh machine and compiled the python-bindings with almost no effort. Better than compiling everything by hand :)


*EDIT* had to run "apt-get install libevas*" because some engine stuff didn't come with the previous command.

Hi Andre,
I installed E17 in my system (Ubuntu 8.04) using the old way (easy_e17). The compilation finished correctly, but eclair don't play music.
I think E17 is very nice, although it needs some plugins and features like NetworkManager interface.
See you,
Alan

Great!

I didn't test all e17 apps yet, still using xmms :). Did you choose the correct sound output plugin (alsa, oss) ?

Yeah, I agree with you, some useful stuff are still missing. The reason for that is probably because e17 is not finished. When we think "X is missing", I guess it would be nicer if we take X as a project for summer, or something like that. I guess I'll try that pretty soon :-)

Thanks for the comment!
