Eterm does not start anymore

I had the same problem. Just remove your ~/.Eterm directory
That'll erase your settings, but Eterm will then start, and you can save your settings again.

I don't know why it would do that, but you could try using strace to nail down the problem. "strace Eterm" should prove enlightening. Emerge strace first, if necessary.

Hi

I have the same problem, just run "strace Eterm" and it seems that some files and directories are missing from home (.Eterm) and /usr/share/Eterm. Eterm was working until I did an update on it so I might try to downgrade to last version that worked, I will let you know if it works.
