Hi Notmuch mail list,

I noticed that the Emacs notmuch tree stopped working after a recent (?)
upgrade.

I checked the code and found that it adds "--sort=newest-first" as
sort-arg to "notmuch show" command.

Machine environment:
Emacs: 27.2
Emasc Notmuch version: notmuch-20210805.1158 installed via package.el
Notmuch binrary version: notmuch 0.32.2

I could remove the sort-arg as a workaround, but a fix would be highly
appreciated! :-)


Regards
Daian

I think the most we could do is have notmuch-emacs print a more
informative message telling the user to upgrade notmuch (patches for
that would be welcome; I haven't decided if it makes sense to bump the
notmuch schema version).

Quoting https://melpa.org/#/notmuch

    Note for MELPA users (and others tracking the development version
    of notmuch-emacs):

    This emacs package needs a fairly closely matched version of the
    notmuch program. If you use the MELPA version of notmuch.el (as
    opposed to MELPA stable), you should be prepared to track the
    master development branch (i.e. build from git) for the notmuch
    program as well. Upgrading notmuch-emacs too far beyond the notmuch
    program can CAUSE YOUR EMAIL TO STOP WORKING.

    TL;DR: notmuch-emacs from MELPA and notmuch from distro packages is
    NOT SUPPORTED.

Maybe check version compatibility when notmuch is invoked from Emacs?

So the user (like me) immediately know that it is time to upgrade my
system...

Yes, that would be fine if someone wants to implement it.

It's a fair point, but if we just bump the schema version, there is not
too much maintenance (just a bit of search and replace in the elisp to
bump the version). Of course it's a different from the other schema
version bumps (where we added new keys), but maybe that doesn't matter.

This is a bit of a cheat, since the format does not actually
change. On the other hand it is fairly common to do something like
this to shared libary SONAMEs when the ABI changes in some subtle way.
It does rely on the format-version argument being early enough on the
command line to generate a sensible error message.
