[PATCH 0/7] gnu: Add hydroxide.

I packaged Hydroxide to let you know that I packaged Hydroxide. 🙃

Here's the list of packages in this patchset:

- go-github-com-emersion-go-imap (required version update)

- go-github-com-boltdb-bolt

- go-github-com-emersion-go-bcrypt

- go-github-com-emersion-go-mbox

- go-github-com-emersion-go-vcard

- go-github-com-emersion-go-webdav

- hydroxide

None of of the dependencies rely on each other, so commit order is irrelevant as long as Hydroxide is last. Several of these patches rely on the Aerc patchset however:

`go-github-com-protonmail-go-crypto`, `go-github-com-emersion-go-message`, `go-github-com-emersion-go-smtp` and their dependencies are already packaged for use with Aerc, so this patchset shouldn't be accepted before Aerc is accepted.

Also, some of Hydroxide's dependencies were already included in Guix.

`go-github-com-emersion-go-imap` was already packaged, but I needed to bump the version so the `go-imap-move`[1] and `go-imap-specialuse`[2] extensions were merged. I sent PR #224[3] to avoid having to package those extensions separately.

`go-golang-org-x-crypto`, `go-golang-org-x-sys` and `go-golang-org-x-term` were also already packaged, and only the latter is directly required by Hydroxide.

Finally, about revision numbers, I'm using the latest Hydroxide commit in order to access my PR and to avoid requiring `go-github-com-mattn-go-isatty` (removed in commit 482bf89). I've also used the latest version for `go-github-com-emersion-go-webdav`, since most recent tagged version is behind enough to cause the Hydroxide build to fail.

Glad to know someone else finds this useful! =)

No need for this field.

Description formatting here, too. Also, IMO "parse and format vCard" sounds

a little weird.

Convert to something like:

Bridge. It allows you to use SMTP and IMAP email clients with a

Thanks for all the feedback (. I'll implement it all soon and send the set again. I have just a couple questions:

Could you explain why this is necessary? It doesn't seem to require it to build or run, at least for me. And do you mean for every package, or just this particular case?

Sounds fine to me. Also, I'm just borrowing the description from the GitHub page. If you do think it should be changed though, what would be a good change?

While thing are getting fixed. Did you manage to configure a proton

mail account to hydroxide correctly? If so, I would use your current

patch locally for setting up my mail account.

Hi Cairn, sorry for the delay!

This is because Go libraries (though not programs) are stored as source code in the

output directory and later fetched and rebuilt when you build one of their dependents.

So, if go-foo requires go-bar requires go-baz, go-bar will be rebuilt whenever go-foo

is built. But if go-bar doesn't use propagated-inputs, the go-baz dependency of go-bar

will be absent from the build environment.

In this case, we're talking about go-github-com-emersion-go-bcrypt depending on the

go-golang-org-x-crypto package; since x-crypto is probably already propagated in the

hydroxide build environment, as it's quite a common package, you don't see any issues;

but were you to write a package that solely depended on go-bcrypt, it'd fail to build

because x-crypto wasn't in the build environment.

IMO, the use of `vCard' as the object of that phrase without any further explanation

of what `vCard' is sounds a wee bit strange, so maybe something like:

parse and format the vCard file format

Assuming vCard is a file format.

Thanks for the responses (. They both make sense. I'll start implementing these changes.

Yep! The SMTP server worked at least; I don't have a use case for IMAP. You can either try this or podiki's Peroxide (which you can ask about on the IRC I think). I'm gonna be working on V2 of Hydroxide in order to make it more compatible with Peroxide for whenever it gets sent as a patchset.

I need to wait to send V2 until this issue is resolved:

Otherwise the program's useless.

This issue appears to be fixable with the following: https://github.com/emersion/hydroxide/issues/179#issuecomment-1236208357

Is there a way to create a build with this fix? (maybe a fork will have to be used) It should work.

You'd use the ``patches'' field of ``origin'' and the ``search-patches'' procedure,

Hi,

The issue got a fix and has been merged
