Description Flavio Leitner 2011-07-04 21:51:31 UTC

Description of problem:

Though the package has a patch to enable libnotify > 0.7.0, it misses to change the configure and configure.ac which requires libnotify < 0.7.3, so as the current libnotify is bigger than that, the support is disabled.

Patching configure.ac and configure files to ignore the  LIBNOTIFY_TOO_HIGH fixes the issue.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
claws-mail-plugins-notification-3.7.9-3.fc15.i686

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install the package
2. check ldd output on /usr/lib/claws-mail/plugins/notification_plugin.so the missing libnotify link

Actual results:
It falls back to a standalone window.

Expected results:
Uses the notification mechanism provided by libnotify:
$ ldd /usr/lib/claws-mail/plugins/notification_plugin.so | grep notify
	libnotify.so.4 => /usr/lib/libnotify.so.4 (0x002a8000)

Comment 1 Michael Schwendt 2011-07-05 07:51:52 UTC

The problem is something else.

This is new in 3.7.9, btw, where the configure script has changed. In 3.7.8 the build.log said "libnotify ... yes":
http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/claws-mail-plugins/3.7.8/8.fc15/data/logs/i686/build.log


>  to ignore the  LIBNOTIFY_TOO_HIGH

Not ignore it, but bump it and:

The notification-plugin ought to add configure option --enable-libnotify explicitly as then it is supposed to error out for an incompatible libnotify.
