Subject: [bug#40959] [PATCH 0/1] WIP: Add icedove.
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2020 12:56:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200429105614.11517-1-jonathan.brielmaier@web.de> (raw)
Hi fellow guix hackers,
in the last couple of days I worked on this icedove patch. It is based
on earlier patches from Adrian and ng0 dating back until 2017 :)
Before getting to exited: there is still a lot to do before merging into
master!
Big missing stuff
=================
* Addons are still enabled and linked to addons.thunderbird.net. This is
a problem with the FSDG though I've not used a non-free Addon or even
saw one in the addon store. Any help how to disable it is welcome.
* Localization: It doesn't have localization support like Icecat. I
guess we just need to port it to Icedove.
Smaller stuff
=============
* The binary should also called icedove not thunderbird.
* In the UI it's called "Thunderbird Daily" this should become Icedove.
* Adrian needs to sign-off as he worked on this patch under GNU AGPL3.
* Do more unbundling. But that is also missing in Icecat.
* We may need some more build phases from Icecat, but at the moment I
want to keep the package as simple as possible. Only acting on real
bugs or issues.
I'm running Icedove now for a couple of days on my laptop. It's working
great. I didn't test installing with a new/empty thunderbird profile.
There are maybe some unknown issues. It builds reproducible and `guix
size` is about 1.1GiB so comparable to Icecat :)
I really hope that we can get Icedove into master. It's current number
one at Guix package wishlist (+6).
So any feedback welcome!
