I'm requesting this to be backported for another person, but I also support it.
From the Hoary Tips and Tricks Forums
First off, thanks for the great How To! I had been using e16 by its self, but this enlightenment/gnome combo is the best of both worlds.
In addition, I would like to second the request to have e16.7 backported. That version is actually in debian stable so I see no reason why it shouldn't be in ubuntu. Maybe now with this how-to there will be some additional interest in a backport.

I also love the enlightened gnome idea, and I actually posted in one of the two EG threads that I am using E16.7 from Sid along with GNOME. I did my homework; the debian packages are identical to the Ubuntu ones dependency wise, and install everything to the same locations. I used the ones from sid after seeing this, and have had no problems.
If these packages were just added straight to backports or extras or something from debian, it would work just fine.

I can't get EGnome to work right. Can't find a good Aqua Theme that doesn't mess with the GNOME Panel :D
But still, it would rock :D

Oh man, playing around with E 16.7 (which I installed from Sid, dont' try this at home unless you know what you're doing/can afford some breakage, though i haven't found any problems) and I found out: Show Desktop works! But it didn't in E16.6! Another reason to have this added to Ubuntu...
