* 1.8 (released on June 25, 2022) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mu |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- =mu= switched to the [[https://mesonbuild.com][meson]] build system by default. The existing =autotools= |
|
|
|
is still available, but is to be removed after the 1.8 release. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using =meson= (which you may need to install), you can use something like |
|
|
|
the following in the mu top source directory: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC sh |
|
|
|
$ meson build && ninja -C build |
|
|
|
#+END_SRC |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- However, note that =autogen.sh= has been updated, and there's a |
|
|
|
convenience =Makefile= with some useful targets, so you can also do: |
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC sh |
|
|
|
$ ./autogen.sh && make # and optionally, 'sudo make install' |
|
|
|
#+END_SRC |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- After that, either =ninja -C build= or =make= should be enough to rebuild |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- NOTE: development versions 1.7.18 - 17.7.25 had a bug where the mail file |
|
|
|
names sometimes got misnamed (with some extra ':2,'). This can be restored |
|
|
|
with something like: |
|
|
|
#+begin_example |
|
|
|
$ find ~/Maildir -name '*:2,*:*' | \ |
|
|
|
sed "s/\(\([^:]*\)\(:2,\)\{1,\}\(:2,.*$\)\)/mv '\0' '\2\4'/" > rename.sh |
|
|
|
#+end_example |
|
|
|
(replace 'Maildir' with the path to your maildir) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
once this is done, do check the generated 'rename.sh' and after convincing |
|
|
|
yourself it does the right thing, do |
|
|
|
#+begin_example |
|
|
|
$ sh rename.sh |
|
|
|
#+end_example |
|
|
|
after that, re-index. |
