SRPM URL: http://rpm.scwlab.com/e-for-rawhide/enlightenment-0.16.999.043-1.fc9.src.rpm

Description:
Enlightenment 0.17 is the next generation of UNIX graphical environments. It is
not just a window manager, but it is also a desktop shell. A desktop shell
means, a window manager plus a file manager, plus configuration utilitys all in
one. They are not separated as usual.

Vera font is being stripped out because:
1) It's original bitstream version, it doesn't include national symbols
2) Its license is different from E license and i don't want License field to exceed 80 chars :)
3) Bundling font is just stupid.

I moved bit of documentation from /usr/share/enlightenment/doc to /usr/share/doc/enlightenment-devel because it's better place for it.

rpmlint rants about two suid binaries. One of them is sudo-like thing used by e to shutdown/reboot, other is cpufreq plugin. sudo-thing could be replaced with proper consolekit/policykit integration, i added this to my TODO.

<emo mode>This sole package was reason for me to spend 2 weeks on learning rpm, become sponsored packager and then spend another month on packaging needed E libraries. I already received few emails from people anticipating E inclusion in fedora.</emo mode>
