E17 sparc packages

I've compiled some sparc E17/EFL packages on a Sun Blade 1000 and uploaded them to the Debian repository. That means there are packages available for all those who need a fast desktop environment even on some of Sun Microsystem's older, but still very reliable workstations.

Usual installation procedures apply here as well.

E17 amd64 packages

Just an update to the previous post:

A new set of amd64 packages has been uploaded and should provide the same functionality as their i386 counterparts. Packages for alpha are planned for the following weeks, probably Sparc packages as well.

Big Debian E17 overhaul

As the PkgE Team is working hard to get E17 into Debian/experimental, I took some time to merge most of their packaging goodness into the debian/ folders of the enlightenment CVS tree. As a result the repository at debian.alphagemini.org now features higher consistency regarding package names and dependencies.
The major change involved renaming of -dev, -dbg and -bin packages of all libraries which now look like libfoo-dev instead of libfoo0-dev. The second change was the package name of enlightenment itself which is now available as e17. Furthermore libe-dbus is now called libedbus. libeet1 is now available from the official Debian repositories as well and should be compatible with the rest of the packages.
Due to all these changes installations will most probably break upon upgrade which can be prevented by uninstalling all previous packages from this repository beforehand. Afterwards a regular

apt-get install e17 emodules-all

should do the rest.

Apart from the above changes there are also some additions, namely three new emodules (execwatch, iiirk and notification) as well as the edje editor.

The AMD64 port will be updated accordingly as soon as the i386 port works flawlessly.

Thanks a lot to Guillaume, Sedat and Vit for reporting bugs and suggestions, and of course to the PkgE-Team for providing the package descriptions.
