Any chance of supporting CentOS?

Eovim should work fine with CentOS. This script is only a helper to install the build dependencies. Eovim depends on:

So if you can provide me the commands needed to install these packages, the setup.py should work fine. For example, on macOS, the following is done:

brew install efl
brew install cmake
brew install wget

I have efl, cmake3, and wget installed. However, I am getting this:

(master|✓); git up

  Could not find a configuration file for package "Eina" that is compatible

  The following configuration files were considered but not accepted:

See also "/home/yann/src/eovim/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log". 

Searching, I found this: Eina is a 'traditional' audio player based on GStreamer and Gtk3 for its graphic interface. Simple, extensible, network-enabled.

Do I really need that?…

Eina is one of the libraries installed by EFL. According to the description of the EFL package I found here, centos only provides EFL 1.17. EFL 1.19 is required to build Eovim.

I'm afraid you will have to build EFL from sources too, if your distribution does not provide an "up-to-date" version (https://www.enlightenment.org/docs/distros/start).

Ah, I was afraid of that… Building/Installing/Updating EFL from source is a pain I do not wish to go through again. Been there, done that, cannot be bothered with it.

Never mind.

All the best.
