Well, this isn't exactly an answer to your question, but compiling it on
your own isn't so bad.  Make sure you have the dpkg-dev installed, cd to
/usr/local/src (or wherever you prefer to compile things), and "apt-get
source enlightenment".  Then cd into the newly created source directory
and edit the debian/rules file, specifically the line where the configure
script (or equivalent) is run.  Then you become root in the manner you
prefer:

# dpkg-buildpackage

Or, if you prefer to do things as a regular user:

$ dpkg-buildpackage -rsudo

(If you prefer to use fakeroot instead or sudo, make that '-rfakeroot'.)

HTH.
