Enlightenment

This wiki page is just a scratchpad for now. It may become a sort of howto, who knows?!? Actually, it's related to my Enlightenment installation on DEVUAN, so without systemd, pulseandio and similar shit

http://devuan.org for more details!

Install from sources

Git repo:

• http://git.enlightenment.org/

BASE install

You need:

apt-get install joe mc git build-essential autoconf autopoint check 

(Yes, I use Joe as editor because I'm used to Wordstar commands since '80 Any editor can work )

efl

 git clone https://git.enlightenment.org/core/efl.git

Require: meson / ninja!

As root:

apt-get install python3-pip

pip3 install meson

apt install ninja-build pkg-config cmake  libssl-dev libjpeg-dev zlib1g-dev libglib2.0-dev libdbus-1-dev libharfbuzz-dev libpoppler-cpp-dev libspectre-dev librsvg2-dev doxygen libssl-dev libjpeg-dev libsdl2-dev libluajit-5.1-dev libfribidi-dev libgif-dev libtiff-dev libmount-dev libblkid-dev libsndfile1-dev x11proto-print-dev libxtst-dev libbullet-dev libfreetype6-dev libfontconfig1-dev libraw-dev libxcomposite-dev libtool libtool-bin libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev

Look at the meson_options.txt for opts to disable with -D as below!

And the final step is:

meson --prefix=/usr/local -Dsystemd=false -Dpulseaudio=false -Davahi=false . build
ninja -C build
sudo ninja -C build install
sudo ldconfig 

And that's it!

BEWARE if you use that prefix, some libs will go in /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ instead of /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ but that's missing in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/somewhere, so ldconfig won't found the libraries and the following compilations will FAIL with missing lib errors!

You need to add /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/somewhere accordingly and do ldconfig again, as root.

enlightenment

git clone http://git.enlightenment.org/core/enlightenment.git/

# I need to disable PAM here
meson --prefix=/usr/local -Dsystemd=false -Dpulseaudio=false -Davahi=false -Dpam=false . build

ninja -C build
sudo ninja -C build install
sudo ldconfig 

Terminology

git clone https://git.enlightenment.org/apps/terminology.git

./autogen.sh

./configure --prefix=/usr/local # but he does exactly that after autogen.sh ;)

make

make install

==== ecrire, text editor ====

This doesn't use meson/ninja, it goes as follow:

{{{

git clone https://git.enlightenment.org/apps/ecrire.git

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make 
make install

everything goes into /usr/local

eterm

Sudo apt install libast-dev

git clone https://git.enlightenment.org/apps/eterm.git
./autogen.sh 
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
sudo make install

equate

this goes in /usr/local by default

git clone https://git.enlightenment.org/apps/equate.git
./autogen.sh 
make
sudo make install

wlan monitoring module

git clone http://git.enlightenment.org/enlightenment/modules/wlan.git
./autogen.sh 
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
sudo make install

cpu monitor module

git clone http://git.enlightenment.org/enlightenment/modules/cpu.git/
./autogen.sh 
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
sudo make install

rage

Some warnings here, dunno if it's ok.

git clone http://git.enlightenment.org/apps/rage.git/
./autogen.sh
ninja -C build
sudo ninja -C build install

OLD - NOT NEEDED

connman / econnman

for econnman you need:

git clone https://git.enlightenment.org/bindings/python/python-efl.git
apt-get install cython
python setup.py build
python setup.py install

and

git clone https://git.enlightenment.org/apps/econnman.git
./autogen.sh
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --localstatedir=/var
make
make install

apt-get install intltool openconnect libgtk-3-dev libgtk-3-0
git clone https://github.com/jgke/connman-gtk.git
./autogen.sh
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
make install

just launch "connman-gtk"

connman isn't an E package, so apt-get install connman ! but warning, it does remove wicd! so do it when you're almost sure. apt-get autoremove will help clean out stuff.

or use packages by Martinx - ジェームズ (Devuan community)

 ppa:martinx/enlightenment

elementary

Not needed if using the EFL from git.

 git clone https://git.enlightenment.org/core/elementary.git

poi ./autogen.sh ./configure

Starting the whole thing

It's not automatic in Devuan, dunno why.

I installed lightdm. Also, I had to create this:

asbesto@rover:~$ cat /usr/share/xsessions/e.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=Enlightenment
Comment=Use this session to run E as your desktop environment
Exec=enlightenment_start
Icon=
Type=Application
DesktopNames=Enlightenment
asbesto@rover:~$

and now lightdm see it as a dm.

Tap to click - scroll bar shit

Added into InputClass section of /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf :

        Option "TapButton1" "1"
        Option "VertEdgeScroll" "1"

Repositories for E18/E19 ?

 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:niko2040/e19
 sudo apt-get update
 sudo apt-get install enlightenment

NOTE:

To disable edge flipping, open the Settings Panel, go to the Input tab, and select Edge Bindings. You can disable all the edge bindings there.



If you use /usr/local:

  Your installation prefix is *NOT* /usr so this means you need to ensure some files are visible to dbus otherwise services cannot be started when needed. You will need to do the following:

System-wide installation:

  ln -s /usr/local/share/dbus-1/services/org.enlightenment.Ethumb.service /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.enlightenment.Ethumb.service

  or add "/usr/local/share" to $XDG_DATA_DIRS

User installation:

  ln -s /usr/local/share/dbus-1/services/org.enlightenment.Ethumb.service ~/.local/share/dbus-1/services/org.enlightenment.Ethumb.service






In case of error:

./configure: line 8396: syntax error near unexpected token `win32-dll'
./configure: line 8396: `LT_INIT(win32-dll disable-static pic-only)'

do

root@rover:/home/asbesto/Desktop/src/e/efl# aclocal
configure.ac:276: warning: macro 'AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION' not found in library
configure.ac:285: warning: macro 'AM_GNU_GETTEXT' not found in library
configure.ac:374: warning: macro 'AM_PATH_LIBGCRYPT' not found in library

and

root@rover:/home/asbesto/Desktop/src/e/efl# autoreconf -i
configure.ac:285: warning: The 'AM_PROG_MKDIR_P' macro is deprecated, and its use is discouraged.
configure.ac:285: You should use the Autoconf-provided 'AC_PROG_MKDIR_P' macro instead,
configure.ac:285: and use '$(MKDIR_P)' instead of '$(mkdir_p)'in your Makefile.am files.

and try again. IT DOESNT WORK. FUCK THAT SHIT

edita configure alla riga 8396 e leva la merda di riga, che non c'entra un cazzo, rilancia configure and you see that works. 


ma anche installa libtool e libtool-bin,

root@rover:/home/asbesto/Desktop/src/e/efl# apt-get install libtool libtool-bin 


poi ridai questo:

 autoheader \
    && aclocal \
    && libtoolize --ltdl --copy --force \
    && automake --add-missing --copy \
    && autoconf \
    && ./configure con tutte le tue opzioni del cazzo





Those are unnecessary, graphic acceleration will be use automagically if available.

  --enable-fb             enable raw Framebuffer access. [default=disabled]
  --enable-eglfs          enable hardware accelerated framebuffer access.
                          [default=disabled]
  --enable-drm            enable drm engine. [default=disabled]
  --enable-gl-drm         enable gl drm engine. [default=disabled]

  --enable-egl            enable EGL rendering. [default=disabled]
