On Gentoo ?? No thanks... I might download 'em and try "rpm2tgz" though.
Hall, why don't you ask Mike Frysinger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>? He's frequently on the e-devel mailing list and he's a gentoo guy, plus he's helpful. He would know better how to install Evidence on Gentoo.
I compiled latest cvs checkouts of entrance and evidence from source on Gentoo yesterday. It went fine. Make sure you compile the dependencies in the right order as on E homepage and with optional configure parameters...
Which dependencies did you also install ?? I know that evidence can use LOTS of add'l packages, but doesn't require them. I tried to go with the bare minimum of what it requires and couldn't get it to compile. Looking
I checked out the entire e17 tree and compiled almost everything in the order specified on http://www.enlightenment.org/pages/cvsnotes.html using optional configure parameters from README files in directories checked out. 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 However, I would not suggest that one rely on gentoo packages for E-cvs related stuff as they frequently go out of date and if installed can be messy to keep up to date in combination with cvs checkouts.
