openSuSE 11.3: enlightenment E17

Dear Readers,

I have added the repo

Index of /repositories/X11:/Enlightenment:/Staging/openSUSE_11.3

with yast and installed enlightenment-0.16.999.55225-1.1.i586.rpm with yast with hopefully all dependencies required. Starting enlightenment ends with the following error message:

ESTART: 0.10054 [0.03240] - move/resize info

<<<< Enlightenment Error >>>>

Enlightenment found Evas can’t load EET files. Check Evas has EET

loader support.

E17: Begin shutdown procedure!

Did I miss a package? Thank you for a quick note.

Regards,
Jon.

After googling around I found that the evas module are located in
/usr/lib/evas/modules/loaders

The only modules available are
/usr/lib/evas/modules/loaders/bmp
/usr/lib/evas/modules/loaders/jpeg
/usr/lib/evas/modules/loaders/pmaps
/usr/lib/evas/modules/loaders/png
/usr/lib/evas/modules/loaders/tga
/usr/lib/evas/modules/loaders/tiff
/usr/lib/evas/modules/loaders/xpm

An eet module is missing. So maybe evas has been compiled without evas support?

Regards,
Jon.

AFAIK you have the wrong repo. Here’s the one that I installed Enlightenment from (and run it once in a while): Index of /repositories/X11:/Enlightenment/openSUSE_11.3 The one you have, I suspect, is experimental.

Thank you for your reply.

I will try this one. Although the packages in that repo are about one year old. The one I have tried is much more recent.

and might be much more experimental. Must say, I haven’t been following the Enlightenment developments lately.

Just for the records: I have re-compiled the package evas-1.0.0-1.1.src.rpm which is included in the repo
Index of /repositories/X11:/Enlightenment:/Staging/openSUSE_11.3
and now E17 comes up as expected.
It seems, that the package evas-modules-1.0.0-1.1.i586.rpm is broken. Hopefully the maintainer will add a working package soon.

Great you’ve got it working. The forums are not the place where the devs look for bug reports.
