Hmm, two concerns about this solution:

1) lintian finds a circular dependency
  libecore-dev libector-dev libeet-dev libeeze-dev libeina-dev libemile-dev 
libevas-dev
I don't know for sure that it's a problem here, but in the past the team
has worked hard to avoid cycles.

2) Upstream doesn't really support builds against part of EFL (and
hasn't since the library merge before 1.8).  I think we generally ought
to avoid supporting scenarios that upstream doesn't.

Instead, what if all of the -dev packages were merged into
libefl-all-dev?  Sample patch is attached.  It's mildly tested:
enlightenment from experimental builds, and the resulting Depends look
correct.  What do you think?

I've pushed the accumulated fixes to:
https://github.com/rvandegrift/efl/tree/debian/experimental
I've added this patch at:
https://github.com/rvandegrift/efl/tree/debian/experimental-next

Thanks,
Ross
