[gentoo-amd64] Errors compiliing Examine and a quick question about bug reports

[Bira]

Hello,

I've been trying out Enlightenment E17 for the past couple of days,
and I've run into some compilation problems with the "examine" lib,
which is a dependency for "engage" (a nifty iconbar thing).

At the start of compilation, the proccess throws up these error messages:

examine-examine_client.o: In function `examine_client_get_val_cb':
examine_client.c:(.text+0x8e2): undefined reference to `ewl_spinner_value_set'

I've tried poking around in the source code, but I couldn't find none
of these functions (ewl_spinner_value_set, etc.) in my include
directory, so I think this is caused by some sort of API change.

I know E17 is pre-alpha, and that this sort of thing is bound to
happen. Should I file a bug report, or should I just wait a week or
two for the problem to be solved?

Also, should I send the report directly to the e-mail Portage gave me
(above) or post it to Gentoo's Bugzilla? I don't think support for E17
is quite official yet, and this is the reason for my question.

I thank you all in advance for your patience and your answers :).

Well, looking around enlightenment.eclass, I see lots of other
messages that indicate that it is still under heavy development.  And
is seems to stillbe  keyworded "-*".  So generally speaking, I would
give the devs a chance to fix it on their own.  But if it doesn't get
resolved in a day or so, either bugzilla or email seem to be
appropriate channels for this.

FYI, it looks like examine-9999 depends on >=x11-libs/ewl-0.0.4.
However there is also an x11-libs/ewl-9999.  Have you tried installing
that version?

I'm following the E17 install guide on the Gentoo wiki, so yes,
ewl-9999 is installed already. I guess I'll wait a few more days for
an update to examine, since the problem seems to be that it expects an
"older" version of the ewl API.
