The code compiles without too much complaint, but the last step fails with the error below. There is some discussion about it on the e forum, but still no answer.

EDIT: Forgot the link http://github.com/etexteditor/e
EDIT2: -Wl,-z,muldefs got rid of a few of the errors – Thx FX!
Finally got it to compile: http://www.e-texteditor.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=14953#14953
Thanks ajpalkovic!
The key is to use ajpalkovic’s fork: http://github.com/ajpalkovic/e/archives/linux
It is not quite ready for the primetime, but this is a huge step forward.
