hello, the information provided below are related to the following: http://trac.enlightenment.org/e/wiki/E17%20binary%20packages 1) suppose that it's nothing but a timing issue, but anyway it's impossible to follow "Release Schedule" with the official snapshots dated 24-Sep-2008 19:45. 2) "After discussion with rasterman, it was opted to have 2 sets of packages, the main and extras:" fine, but let's look at the current reality. the "Extras" have for example the "Exchange" library which provide on-line access to the http://exchange.enlightenment.org/ . please correct me if i wrong, but there're two cases: we do have linked E17 with "libexchange.so.0" or we don't. in this case we need at least two separate repositories with two different "E17" packages in each repo. is that what we want? P.S. as i see "Exchange" is removed from "Extras" and disappeared from page. assume we don't need it. ok. 3) extras repo: "This does not mean software there is broken, they should not be!" ok. agree. but... a) "Exalt" - totally broken here (i wrote before about that) and start of a daemon easily crashes the running system (i wish i was wrong). b) "Ecomorph" + "Ecomp" - imho they strictly require the exact E-svn-revision number indicated here: http://github.com/jeffdameth/ecomorph-e17/commits/ otherwise the stability (along with the smooth compilation) is not ensured. c) "Exhibit" - just try to change/set "Open with" default entries. result is a segfault. bt is below: http://pastebin.com/m15a1124a d) "Estickies" - has no UTF-8 support along with no SCIM support. is it o'k for a "Notes" application? e) "Emphasis": bt of a segfault when we're clicking on "Playlists" button: http://pastebin.com/m7bd1713f bt of a segfault when we're clicking on "switch to compact mode" http://pastebin.com/m4af7b96 f) "Weather": http://www.imagebam.com/image/88e21c33322321 g) "Language" module is dead for modular "Xorg": http://www.imagebam.com/image/565cf233322322 just hope that provided info is useful for you. regards, sda |
