Fortunately e19 landed just in time to get into openSUSE 13.2, for those who have used e18 you will notice lots of similarities for those who haven’t have a look here. I also haven’t covered alot of the things that were new in the last release that can be found here.

The most noticeable difference is the new theme and if you don’t like it there’s two others to choose from including a light theme, the openSUSE 13.1 theme is also avalible in the enlightenment-theme-oliveleaf package.

Thanks to vast improvements to ibar we have also been able to include a dock based profile as shown below. Other new modules include a new tiling module, new pager with live previews, a packagekit module and a music control module, along with some others.

Some changes to be aware of are, the e19 package is now called enlightenment, e17 is still availble in the e17 package and for those who use e16 it is now in the package called e16 rather then the one called enlightenment. Unfortunatly not all the patterns got updated correctly so the enlightenment pattern will still install e17. e19.1 and a new efl version will be pushed to openSUSE 13.2 as maintenance updates over the next couple of weeks.
