The e17 ebuild does not cater for the -beta2 versions.
I'm not sure that efl overlay is still required to run E17. I just today moved from efl to the enlightenment overlay (Vapier's). I had to keyword all necessary E17 packages as -9999 ** to be able to install stuff, or the E16 packages were being drawn in. The enlightenment overlay seems to be a couple of months behind efl judging by the bugs that I thought were already resolved. Some packages (e.g. epdf) will not build because dependencies are missing and what not, but the following packages were able to emerge without problems and give (me) a functioning desktop: =============================== emerge -aDv dev-libs/ecore dev-libs/e_dbus dev-libs/eet dev-libs/eina dev- libs/embryo dev-libs/efreet media-libs/edje media-libs/ethumb media-libs/evas x11-wm/enlightenment media-libs/emotion dev-libs/eeze These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!
