Keep secure when traveling.

If you have an existing EFL or Elementary install, you may wish to delete its header files and libraries before compiling and installing to avoid possible conflicts during compilation. Please compile the dependencies in the following order (click for README):

1. EFL

Note: E21 depends on EFL v1.17 or newer for X11 compositing although v1.18 is recommended and v1.18 is required for Wayland support.
