Maybe you can tell me how I should do this.

I simply deleted .e (for not to have a segfault) and logged in with
entrance to e17. Then I get many popups could not load this or that
module - one popup for every module, so at least there is no module
loaded (in the menu 'Modules' shows (No loaded modules).
Is there a way to have a session with nothing exept an xterm in entrance
to choose? Failsafe seems to load a wm (twm?), otherwise I could give
you backtrace from e17, but hum - how can I make gentoo not to strip all
the e17 binaries - this causes to have 'No debugging symbols' as far as
I know?

I can code C, but I don't like to build all the apps by my own, so the
gentoo ebuilds are pretty good. I could create a script which makes use
of patches, so I could send you patches for that. But before I start
this (I would not code e17, I would only try to solve build errors or
segfaults - a segfaults normally is causes by a missing test (in C a if
clause), however, before I start, I would like to know if you could need
me, and I'd like to know how you work. You can have patches from me
(diff -Nur).

I use the following script to update my e17. You would need to know
about gentoos ebuild system to understand what 'emerge' does.
#!/bin/sh
for prog in eet dev-db/edb evas ecore embryo imlib2 imlib2_loaders \
edje epeg media-libs/epsilon esmart emotion engrave ewl entice \
entrance eclair e examine \
engage e_utils e_modules elicit evidence \
evfs
do
false
while [ "$?" -ne "0" ]
do
emerge --oneshot $prog;
done
done
This gives you a hint for the order I use to rebuild all the things.
The while is that on cvs update failure the package will be tried again.
Maybe this helps, if not, just ask for more information.
