Hi,

I am running a Debian Wheezy and tried to compile e17 for it. To avoid 
problems with possible bugs in current svn I wanted to check out the 
revision that points to the 17.1 release. So I used the easy_e17.sh script
and pointed it to src revision 83478 (was this the correct version?).

The following things are now suboptimal to me:

1. my custom keyboard settings are not selectable

   I have created my custom keymap /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/mherrn, which
   works very well even on an older e17 (the one that once was in Debian
   sid (0.16.999.55225). But the language selection code seems to have
   changed a lot. I offers me languages for which I don't have the locales
   installed. But the worst problem: I am unable to select my custom
   keymap. So is there a way to tell enlightenment to include this keymap?

   The second issue here is that enlightenment has its own definition of
   the keyboard shortcut to switch between keymaps. For example, in Debian
   I can define it in /etc/default/keyboard (where I also define the
   keymaps I want to use). But e17.1 ignores this and I have to configure
   it again for e17. (Not really a problem, but a nuisance)

   And e17.1 often (but not always) segfaulted when switching keymaps with
   Shift-Shift (what I wouldn't expect from the release version), but maybe
   that comes from a conflict between the self compiled e17.1 and the
   installed old e17 from the debian repository.

2. I have two screens (running it on a laptop with internal display + an 
   additional external monitor). Is there a way to have a different number
   of virtual Desktops on each screen? Currently I am only able to do the 
   Virtual Desktop Settings once and it effects both screens.

3. When compiling, some packages always failed with the following (or a
   similar) error:
  
  make  all-recursive
  make[1]: Entering directory `/home/mherrn/src/e17/src/empower'
  Making all in src
  make[2]: Entering directory `/home/mherrn/src/e17/src/empower/src'
  Making all in bin
  make[3]: Entering directory `/home/mherrn/src/e17/src/empower/src/bin'

  make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
  make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/mherrn/src/e17/src/empower'
  make: *** [all] Error 2


   I have libudev-dev 175 installed and e_dbus was compiled and installed 
correctly.
   The generated include/e_dbus-1/E_DBus.h file also contains the typedef 
DBusMessage.
   So what is wrong here?

Marco
