I did eventually light on a combination that did this, so finally all the packages are gone. My heartfelt thanks to all of you who contributed to solving this problem. For the record, people who have installed e17 from the Ubuntu repos and who want to build a new e/efl/terminology need to do: apt remove --purge e17 e17-data e17-dbg e17-dev (Some of those may not have been installed.) This will mention that a number of packages are now unused and can be deleted with autoremove. Don't do this. It will also say that /usr/share/enlightenment was not empty and wasn't removed. Unless you have added icons manually to that directory, you can delete it manually first. Then do as Ross suggests and remove --purge libeina1 This will remove the following: libecore-con1* libecore-evas1* libecore-fb1* libecore-file1* libecore-imf1* libecore-input1* libecore-ipc1* libecore-x1* libecore1* libedbus1* libedje-bin* libedje1* libeet1* libeeze1* libefreet-bin* libefreet1a* libeina1* libeio1* libembryo-bin* libevas-loaders* libevas1* libevas1-engines-x* and suggest that libembryo1 can be autoremoved (it can). You should now have a cleaned-up system to work from to install e according to the instructions at https://www.enlightenment.org/distros/debian-start (replacing libxp-dev with x11proto-print-dev). > AFAIK, there's never been e18 or e19 packages distributed with Ubuntu. > You probably got them from an unofficial source.

I certainly didn't install anything from an unofficial source, but perhaps I misread what it said: I was certainly under the impression that I was using e18 under 15.10. I know that I was so shocked at what it said that I reported it to this list (first post in this thread on 31 Oct 2016 at 22.02). > I've built a PPA with the new Debian experimental packages here: > https://launchpad.net/~ross-kallisti/+archive/ubuntu/efl+e/ > These have never been tested in Ubuntu, but are doing well for me on > Debian stretch + experimental. Binaries are only there for 16.04.
