Dillo on Solaris
by Mail.com Janke 09 Feb '03

09 Feb '03

Just pulled latest dillo from CVS & compiled on Solaris 8. It's a pretty slick browser. Some things to fix for Solaris builds: nanosleep() needs to be linked with -lrt. Adding something like: case $system in SunOS) LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -lrt" ;; esac to configure.in seems to fix that problem. Also, Solaris seems to not have AF_LOCAL and SUN_LEN defined. Adding defs for those two somewhere -- in a header or in dpi.c seems to fix those problems. #ifndef AF_LOCAL #define AF_LOCAL AF_UNIX #endif #ifndef SUN_LEN /* This system is not POSIX.1g. */ #define SUN_LEN(ptr) ((size_t) \ (((struct sockaddr_un *) 0)->sun_path) \ + strlen ((ptr)->sun_path)) #endif (I swiped that code from the nautilis project.) With those fixes & got it to built & it seems to work. I have not done the bookmark tarball yet. --Mike -- __________________________________________________________ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup

Dillo & Sylpheed-Claws integration page updated
by Melvin Hadasht 06 Feb '03

06 Feb '03

Hi, I updated my pages concerning the integration of Dillo as an HTML mail viewer in Sylpheed-Claws. New screenshots reflecting the use of Dillo 0.7.0 were also added. The plans concerning Sylpheed-Claws were included, too. The URL is: http://melvin.hadasht.free.fr/home/dillo/sylpheed/ To summarize: currently, and not before Claws 0.8.11, Claws must be patched with the patches I provide in that page. It is planned that Claws 0.8.11 will officially include support to embed Dillo to view HTML mail. The current version of Claws is 0.8.9 and 0.8.10 is soon to be released. Dillo cvs and 0.7.0 and newer do not need to be patched anymore. Best regards -- Melvin Hadasht

Does FTP work? The page about achieved goals states that: "Fixed the plugin handler (FTP works again)" ? Any info about this?

Next release...
by Jorge Arellano Cid 05 Feb '03

05 Feb '03

Hi there! I tried to make the release from where I'am now, but there're still some issues pending. For instance: the bookmarks server doesn't work when there's no bm.txt file, the conversion from the old format is not automatic and most importantly, bm_srv12.c code should be inside the final tarball. Some of those were fixed today (not commited yet) and the latter is pending. The problem is I don't know when I'll be able to reconnect, but in the meanwhile I will work on finishing the 0.7.0 tarball, so the next email should be something like a test petition for the candidate tarball. So far dpi over unix sockets has been tested in GNU.Linux and *BSD environments. See you soon Jorge.- PS: please keep reporting any further troubles you may find. Livio and Sebastian are still online and can take care of it.

> > This list seems OK to me. Thanks Jorge. > > Are you savvy on autoconf/automake stuff? Not really. :-) I only know which files need to be around and which ones don't, and the list seemed OK. I wrote because I was among the ones who asked you to remove those files and I'm happy that you did.

autoconf/automake stuff in CVS

The problem is the time gap between 'exec' and the dpi-program being operative. It should be minimal when the programs is on a local HD, but NFS may take some time. I added the wait cycles for this case, and don't know the "canonical" way to do it. Yes it could be done with a gtk-timeout function or something akin but the wait cycles were the simplest thing to begin with. ;) Cheers Jorge.-

(now with autoconf/automake stuff renewed in CVS, and the new bookmarks server tarball I hope it get easier to test and send some feedback!) With respect to staying alive, I also think it should end after closing dillo. Maybe sending a termination request at exit time could work fine, but I need some time to think about it... In the meanwhile, I changed the "sun" variable and also initialized "addrsize" as Melvin pointed out. AFAIU this doesn't affect those using GNU/Linux. Now you can download the latest bookmarks server and test all the stuff. Note: the new bookmarks server tarball has a short program and instructions to test permissions on *BSD machines. Someone please give it a try. Regards Jorge.- > Nice work done :) Thanks!

Hi, I've just checked out the current CVS tree, and running aclocal, (from the autogen.sh script), gives the error: aclocal: configure.in: 36: macro `AM_PATH_GTK' not found in library Has the current procedure for building from CVS changed? John.
