Subject: bug#42959: enable alpine passfile
Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2020 09:35:13 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3484cf2d-11e7-1428-33fd-3ec674f9df3f@gmail.com> (raw)
Unless alpine is configured with a default passfile, it does not even
offer the option to use one. There are some security concerns to
consider[0], and I would understand if they were reason enough to not
enable the alpine passfile. But I don't want to keep typing several
complicated passwords every time I check my email from a VT, and I don't
think I'm the only one. Since this was not found in the archive, I
figured it would be worth sending a bug report.
On a side note, alpine 2.23 is released, and guix is still configured
for 2.22. Strangely enough, the package uses the same commit the release
tag points to.
Thanks,
-Jesse
