Compiling Enlightenment DR17 (E17) on OpenSUSE/PPC

I finally decided to give a try compiling my favorite window manager (E17) on my eMac running OpenSUSE.

Earlier, I had tried it on FreeBSD/x86 without success, but I had it compiled on Gentoo sometime back.

I downloaded the latest CVS snapshots required, following this document.

I started the build process, but soon the compilation aborted complaining about undefined reference to memcpy.  Ah, I remember now, this is the same error that hit me while compiling Mozilla.

Here we go, I patched the E17 sources and tried again, without surprise it worked!

Here’s the screenshot of the E17 desktop on OpenSUSE/PPC.
