Latest git has got window focus issues. Stay away from git if you want 
stable software. Most stable is the latest e17 release. I would hold e18

You need to set an icon theme in e. *Any* reasonably complete icon 
theme. Also, either install evas-generic-loaders if you want to use svg

This can be easily fixed by setting the following your desktop directory 
in ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs

XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/.config/Desktop"

e follows freedesktop specs and it will respect the settings there.
