What is the next step to get Privacy Browser added to Guix?

Hi Soren,

Thanks for the patch! It looks good, but I wonder about ‘khelpcenter’.

Notably, it doesn't enable the ‘Help’ → ‘Privacy Browser Handbook’.

That prints

kf.guiaddons: Could not find a suitable handler for "help:/"

in the console and does nothing in the GUI. Is this something that

could be fixed?

If it's something that requires a full(er) KDE installation, does adding

‘khelpcenter’ make a difference? It doesn't for me.

Kind regards,

T G-R

I apologize for not responding sooner.  I assumed that when someone commented 
on the issue I would receive an email, but either it never came or I missed it 
somehow.

KHelpCenter is required to be able to open the Handbook (press F1 inside of 
the program).  There is a lot of important information in the Handbook that 
users of Privacy Browser would benefit reading.

Note that for KHelpCenter to function, it must be specified at runtime. For

example:

guix shell privacybrowser khelpcenter -- privacybrowser

It seems there are a few missing icons and there are some warnings written to

the console. I assume that relates to some deficiency in the KHelpCenter

package. But all the text of the Handbook can be read.

Maybe it should be a propagated input then?

Also does it have to be in a specific file? I imagine it could fit in

qt.scm?

Thanks,

Clément

How is that done?

You can put it wherever it makes the most sense.  If you would like to place 
it inside of another scm, I would imagine that web-browsers.scm is probably 
the most logical location.

You use the propagated-inputs field instead of the inputs field. The

consequence is that installing "PrivacyBrowser" will install the

propagated inputs too. Same with "guix shell". So "guix shell

privacybrowser -- privacybrowser" will work.

Indeed, sounds like the right place.

Can you send an updated patch?
