    initial v1  
    1 The ports ports ecore, edje, eet, eina, embryo, and evas have been obsolete since at least 2016. Upstream no longer releases them separately; they're now a collection called the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enlightenment_Foundation_Libraries Enlightenment Foundation Libraries]. efreet is not mentioned on that page but appears to be part of the same package. e_dbus appears to have been replaced with eldbus which is also in that package. So these eight ports need to be replaced by a new port efl.

    33I had not prioritized doing that because these libraries are only used for the e17 port, which is itself over a decade out of date. I had wanted to work on updating it, but only got as far as updating these eight dependency ports for awhile; see #37506. The current version of enlightenment is E25. Probably the e17 port should be replaced by the enlightenment port and the enlightenment port should be updated to the latest version. It seems like a medium-sized project and I'm not planning on working on it right now.
