Re: [e-users] Compilation difficulties

Hi,

If you look at the Enlightenment git Repositories and the commits it 
becomes apparent that some things are being maintained and some things 
aren't. In my experience outside of main Enlightenment itself things are 
very hit and miss and many things have not seem commits for 3 years or 
more. There may be pet applications that worked several versions ago or 
were great on E 17 that simply don't work any more. I have had decent 
luck with compiling Evisum, Entice, Rage, the 'Places' module and of 
course Terminology. Outside of those you're on a very slippery slope, as 
an example ePhoto is pretty broken (unless you compile the version that 
Bodhi Linux has done a lot of fixing on, which works great and compiles 
fine on E).

As said Enlightenment has a basic interface for Connman built-in and if 
you need more control there is a Qt app called cmst that seems to work 
quite well for fine tuning adjustments.

Enlightenment is in great shape these days but the peripheral stuff is 
hit and miss in my recent experience. YMMV
