Sir,
I'm willing to learn some about svn, and do the suggested svn update,
but want to
be sure I am starting the right way.
The version of E17 I am using on slackware64 13.37 was from the slacke17
project,
which I think only gets updated when the slackware version changes.
Their build is
R59882.
(I think the bug fix you were referring to might be 63051, which modified
trunk/e/src/modules/conf_theme/e_int_config_wallpaper.c)
<http://trac.enlightenment.org/e/changeset/63051/trunk/e/src/modules/conf_theme/e_int_config_wallpaper.c>
After e17 was working I wanted to modify some themes, so needed to
install edje, etc.
I tried using the easy-e17 script and it may work on 32 bit systems, but
on multi-lib
systems like slackware64, it has problems with placing things in lib vs
lib64 and will never
work as it is.
I wrote to the guy who maintains that script, and suggested some "if"
statements
for lib/lib64 placement. We manually changed all occurrences of lib to
lib64, but it
turned out there were other problems too. sigh.
I have now a slackE17, with a bunch of failed compiles on top of it.
Maybe 2/3 of
e17 modules did eventually compile, but not anywhere near all of them.
So to do an "svn update", do I need to go back to square 1, and work at
compiling
all of E17 till I get that compiled from source, then and only then, proceed
with the "svn update" ?
Or do I erase all of E17 and start again?
Just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing for this starting point.

svn update. there seems to have been a bug lurking which handles assigning
wallpapers to specific screens.
