[oi-dev] Enlightenment and XCB libraries

[Aurélien Larcher]

  Hi,
last week I compiled and installed E17 (32bit only) on my laptop running 
hipster.
So far, except one quirk with file saving in the screenshot application 
there is not major issue and everything compiles fine with gcc (all the 
core libraries + Exquisite).
Enlightenement relies on the XCB librairies [1] which are not present in 
oi-userland.

For testing purposes, I created a branch in my github account adding the 
following dependencies in the x11 directory of oi-userland:

xcb-proto 1.9
libxcb 1.9.3
xcb-util 0.3.9
xcb-util-keysyms 0.3.9

I just compiled 32bit versions only and installed them in /usr for the 
sake of simplicity.

Since I do not know how X11-related questions are handled, I would like 
to know if similar work has been done and whether these XCB components 
should be included in userland.
For instance, Ken Mays and/or Alan Coopersmith, do you possibly have an 
input on that ?

Thank you.
Best regards,

Aurélien
