[Pkg-e-devel] Bug#535768: closed by Albin Tonnerre <lutin at debian.org> (Bug#535768: fixed in evas 0.9.9.49898-1)

[Mark-Willem Jansen]

Hi, 

Me again. Just had a small chat in the IRC channel. Your patch will probably solve 
the problem of evas on hurd. But it will break ecore/evas and ecore/e17. So it does 
not seem to be a good option at the moment. Maybe you could post your problem 
and patch over the mail list of enlightenment, so they can have a better look at it.

Oh and EFL and e17 are not yet ported to hurd.
