I currently have both e16 & e17 versions of the enlightenment window manager installed to the sabayon 3.5 on my amd-64 laptop. I wanted to know if there were available upgrades for either or both of them. (currently I use e16 more than e17 because it's proven more stable on my computer...) But when I tried to find out what was available, (and verify the current version numbers of what was installed), what I got was confused. Though it does seems that I could emerge an updated version of e17...
I'm not really surprised that equo doesn't find the e17 in the enlightenment overlay... But since I have both enlightenment AND sabayon overlays, I'm surprised that emerge doesn't list both versions of enlightenment. Why is that?????
I note that I currently have a higher version of e16 than equo wants to offer. I think I remember that back in Feb, just before I got the enlightenment overlay working, I used emerge to update my e16 to version: 0.16.8.15...
Which is born out by the results I got when I googled 'sabayon enlightenment'. Which includes something I posted to the e-users mailing list which included a pasted result from an 'emerge --search enlightenment' which said version 0.16.8.15 was available and version 0.16.8.11 was installed. All I can think of to find out if there's an upgrade for the e16 would be to temporarily delete the enlightenment overlay, Then see what 'emerge -s enlightenment' says... Then after I'm done with any e16 updating, I could re-add the overlay.
But somehow that doesn't feel like the right solution...
Any suggestions???
