Ping?
This is now the case for mga4 :-/

I investigated a bit more, and this happens if someone tries to install it as a standalone (out of e17). The package misses:

Requires: evas

Which allows to actually get a windows, but the text inside is corrupted. It misses another package

Requires: elementary

PS: I think task-minimal-e17 is also a bit funny on mga4; it triggers the install of two devel packages:

lib64lua5.1-devel
lib64readline-devel

May be there is a good reason, but that sounds very weird.
