Both packages appear to support optional building against hal:
e # ./configure --help | grep hal
--enable-device-hal enable hal device backend [default=disabled]
e_dbus # ./configure --help | grep hal
--disable-ehal Disable ehal build
and at least in vapier's overlay the ebuilds have USE support for this. There
is this comment just before RDEPEND in the enlightenment-9999 ebuild
# XXX: missing USE=hal depend ?
RDEPEND="
...
>=dev-libs/e_dbus-9999[hal,libnotify]
...
So I would suggest editing that line to remove the USE=hal requirement,
redigest and see what happens. Off the top of my head the main things that may
use hal are device icons on the desktop and the battery module.
