It handles IMAP beautifully, and provides the user with smart, sensible defaults.

Sorry, a typo on my side. It is libindicate, and I'm currently preparing a package. But it seems not strictly necessary for postler and can be enabled later. (And for various reasons it seems unlikely we can have libindicate in F14.)

So no reason to wait for it. Just as in bug 690953 I think the description should not include the word "sexy" and the language doesn't matter to the user either. According to the packaging guidelines you should not build with the included waf copy but with the system's version if possible. The two warnings form desktop-file-validate are bogus: According to the spec "Email" needs either "Office" or "Network" but not both and the latter is in place. The x-scheme-handler/mailto MIME type is required for GNOME3's default applications dialog, see bug 690298. There is no need to contact upstream about the desktop file warnings, I just spoke to him. He and I have no idea about the problems with the debuginfo other than that the paths is wrong. find-debuginfo.sh is looking in postler-0.1.1/_build_/ while it is postler-0.1.1/_build_/default/postler Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/postler/+bug/723282/comments/17 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2011-03-29T16:24:06+00:00 Christoph wrote: There is a problem with the icon I think: Postler includes internet-mail from elemantary-icon-theme and installs it to %{_datadir}/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/internet-mail.svg. Themed icons/icons with a generic name should not be in hicolor because we could have another app providing internet-mail as well and we might run into a file conflict. I suggest to install it as postler.svg. It's no longer themable then, but this doesn't really matter because elementary and oxygen are the only packages to include an icon of the name "internet-mail" anyway. Stay tuned for a full review.

Postler's. For desktop-file-utils there already is a bug report and a patch at https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35844 I suggest to ignore both warnings.

Thomas, let me know if you'd like a comaintainer for this. I have some differences in my specs: - CFLAGS needs to be manually exported; when packaging I searched for any guidelines for packaging with waf (we still really need to write one!)

Funnily > all the people involved in that thread on the mailing list are here -- me, you > (waf maintainer) and Christoph who started the thread. There has been a long thread on the devel mailing list some time ago with no real outcome. Also see below. > - waf build probably needs the -v option (verbose) -- that's how I discovered The -v switch didn't work on my F13 machine, and caused waf itself to crash. > the wrong compiler flags were being used, and %{?_smp_mflags} Not really needed, as waf automatically builds in parallel, using as many threads as it finds cores. Maybe it's nevertheless a good idea to pass -j %{?_smp_mflags}, so koji has more control. > - link against libdb-devel (BerkeleyDB 5) rather than db4 Why's that? > - use system waf rather than the bundled version This is something we shouldn't do (in general, for any package, that is). I was still hoping someone else filed a request for an exception at the packaging committee. But now that I also own a package using waf, so maybe I have to do it myself. Postler bundles waf 1.5.X, but in rawhide we are at 1.6. I didn't thoroughly test whether there are incompatibilities for postler, but in general, each package should use its bundled waf copy and not the system one. As waf is a development tool and not some sort of runtime library, the usual security argument against bundling doesn't really hold. The bundled copy is what upstream has released and tested their package with, and deviating from that is not worth the effort. > Also, I started using the virtual pkgconfig(...) rather than package names, as they match up with upstream's dependency checking better. Will consider this.
