Re: [e-users] Compiling e17, no way?

No, there is no way to compile e17/apps/e
That code is part of some work that was done quite a while ago but now 
is dormant since the libs were rewritten.  ebits and ebg are no longer 
used and their functionality has since been merged into other libs.  I 
believe raster has been working on the new e recently and will upload it 
reletivly soon.  Be patient, until then, you can play with the EFL.  The 
devs have made it clear that e17 will not be rushed and that library 
maturity is prefered over a quicker release of e17.

Ebits has long since been replaced:
" The plan in the long term is to provide a new version of the old 
Etcher tool that was produced for a predecessor prototype for Edje 
(called Ebits) which gave a user a powerful GUI tool to create such 
files and edit them. Since Edje is so much more powerful and complex 
than Ebits ever was, this work has not yet been done, but is on the 
drawing-board." --http://enlightenment.org/pages/systems.html

"Ebits gave way to its rewrite renamed to Edje, which meant that 
applications using Ebits were no longer needed (Etcher and Ebony)." 
--http://www.enlightenment.org/pages/faq.html

Note to the Devs:
I would consider adjusting the README in the apps/e folder as it doesn't 
explicitly say this won't build at the moment and that it depends on old 
libs that no longer exist.
