e17 trouble

Kenetixx · 2006-10-01 01:44:14

I have just installed the latest cvs but when i go to start it i get

enlightenment: error while loading shared libraries: libecore_desktop.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

, it seems i dont have this installed , so which library is it from or is it something else?

Also have a bit of a newbie question concerning e17 - have installed from new repo and can launch fine - what I cant work out is how to get the modules working. I have menus for other apps but cant see how to access the e17 specific apps (evince etc). Do I need to build these before I can use them or am I missing somthing obvious?

Thanks in advance. Dont mean to hijack this thread just hoping an e17 guru might be attracted by thge title!

what repo have you two installed this from?

Kenetixx · 2006-10-01 09:45:48

takhis repo
is where i got it from as it seemed to be the latest one i could find, is there another uptodate one?

karag · 2006-10-01 11:40:15

you can do

pacman -S e17

to get it all if you have community repo enabled -
thanks to penguin for saying this in another thread, as I couldn't find it!

Kenetixx · 2006-10-01 14:18:01

Still get the same error even with the community repo and the community one seems out of date?

cookeal · 2006-10-01 18:05:48

takhis also - runs fine - just cant see how to get the modules up and running.

e17 from repo works you may need to add -fd as it complains about breaking stuff but E17 is working here....

HTH

The e17 in the community repo uses devel snapshots. So the cvs version will be more up-to-date. The community e17 also don't include all the apps/modules that you would found in the cvs repos.

EDIT: Are you sure there is no e17-cvs stuff lying around? I don't have any libecore_desktop.* files and the e17 from community works fine.

You shouldn't need to do that. May be you have e17-cvs stuff on your system... Did you take note of the error messages?

Mr Green · 2006-10-01 20:11:17

no mate sorry I took a big hammer & whacked 'em in ... in paman.log?

could do with changing that gold theme....

I may have had some old stuff on system... I have tried most WMs as some point in time

Snowman · 2006-10-01 20:45:54

pacman.log won't containt these errors.

About the theme, there's probably not much themes out there as e17 is still in developpement. You could try googling around.

pacman -Qo /opt/e17/lib/libecore_desktop.so.1
/opt/e17/lib/libecore_desktop.so.1 is owned by ecore-cvs 20060929-1

one of the packages should have done this:

if ! [ `grep '/opt/e17/lib' etc/ld.so.conf` ]; then
echo "/opt/e17/lib" >>etc/ld.so.conf
fi

/sbin/ldconfig -r .

Hope that helps...

Thanks ppl Snowman hit it on the head i had older cvs stuff on there i used -fd and it installed no probs, but it is a fair bit different since lst time i used it, is there a script to populate menus auto, or do i have do that manually?

reverie · 2006-10-02 04:23:39

Configuration/Applications and hit the "Regenerate Applications Menu" button... Caching code hasn't been rewritten yet so the menus might be a tad slow for now...

Mr Green · 2006-10-02 06:41:17

Its up & running now ...

Will need to edit menus I guess will find that out on enlightenment site...

how do you get the snow working lol.....

thanks for all your help

Has anyone had trouble changing themes with the latest Arch packages? I haven't been able to change themes or wallpapers, and I'm not particularly fond of the default gold bars and brushed metal.

karag · 2006-10-11 06:13:07

most of the themes at get-e.org only work with latest cvs version - ie. not version in community repos.
you will need to install the packages from takhis repo to use them.
you should be able to change wallpaper with the community packages, though.
