This HOWTO describes the simple process of installing Enlightenment DR17 & related utilities using our own Smoon's excellent apt repository. Thanks Smoon!
First, add Smoon's repository to your apt sources.list:
Code:
$ sudo echo "deb http://ubuntu.nooms.de/ hoary/" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
Next, create and open the apt preferences file:
Code:
$ sudo gedit /etc/apt/preferences
and tell it to prefer the latest version of Enlightenment:
Code:
Package: enlightenment Pin: version 0.16.999.* Pin-Priority: 999 Package: enlightenment-data Pin: version 0.16.999.* Pin-Priority: 999
Update apt:
Code:
$ sudo apt-get update
and install!
Code:
$ sudo apt-get install enlightenment eutils
Optionally, you can install extra programs & modules. For more information on these, see the Get-E user guide.
Code:
$ sudo apt-get install emodules engage eclair elicit entice examine
Finally, create a desktop entry for E17, to log in from your login manager:
Code:
$ sudo gedit /usr/share/xsessions/E17.desktop
add the text:
Code:
[Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=E17 Comment= Exec=enlightenment Icon= Type=Application
Log out, log into E17, and enjoy!
