I reinstalled sup from aur (there's been a new package version, upgraded me from 0.11-1 to 0.11-2) and just in case backed ruby (upgraded recently to 1.9.2) to 1.9.1. I'm not sure the latter was necessary but I'm up and running again. I'm using this at work too so I have no time to experiment with upgrading ruby, but I'll try when I get a chance (especially if somebody here can confirm sup works with ruby 1.9.2 on their box). The new package release -2 depends on ruby-ncursesw instead of ruby-ncurses the -1 depended on - this might have something to do with the whole error (but it's just a guess). Try respawning sup from aur and if this doesn't help, downgrade ruby to 1.9.1. Good luck!

I don't seem to have the 1.9.1 package anymore due to a recent cache cleaning. Read all the things I tried: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=26439 How can a stupid minor version change break things so badly? And no one knows what's wrong or how to solve this mess? I'm kinda pissed. Maybe we can get sup into community, so it's kinda supported and might get some testing that would catch this kind of breakage before it hits users. _______________________________________________ sup-talk mailing list sup-talk@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/sup-talk ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

The first problem I ran into was related to ncursesw using STR2CSTR () and not StringValuePtr, this has been obsolete for a while, but was apparently removed in 1.9.2. I got ncurses to work; see attached PKGBUILD with patch. But there were some problems with the tmpfile stuff, sup would start (complain about ncurses not being ncursesw, which i don't think is correct because i didn't seem to have problems with wide chars.. but well well, probably just a matter of names). But when creating a new message it would fail. So I gave up :p and downgraded to 1.9.1-p378 from arch, I jumped a few revisions back in Arch'es ABS (PKGBUILD's), I'll attach the PKGBUILD here for you, but you could grab it yourself from ArchLinux's repository. Still rebuilding some gems so haven't been able to test if something else is the cause yet.. but this should work. To be able to build the old ruby I first had to delete the 1.9.2 ruby.. (otherwise the build will segfault). I just removed it with pacman -Ud ruby ( or actually yaourt.. but..) The attached files should be put in their own folder and you can create the packages with makepkg, and install the resulting *.pkg..* with pacman -U filename. - gaute On Fri, Sep 3, 2010 at 7:57 PM, <hollunder@lavabit.com> wrote: >> Excerpts from Daren Lord's message of 2010-09-03 15:13:40 +0200: >>> There must have been an arch package update that is now causing my sup >>> mail to >>> fail with this error. >>> >>> /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems.rb:762:in `report_activate_error': Could >>> not find >>> RubyGem ncurses (>= 0) (Gem::LoadError) >>> from /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems.rb:219:in `activate' >>> from /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems.rb:254:in `block in activate' >>> from /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems.rb:253:in `each' >>> from /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems.rb:253:in `activate' >>> from /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems.rb:1065:in `gem' >>> from /usr/bin/sup:18:in `<main>' >>> >>> I have both ncurses and ncursesw installed through the aur branch. >>> >>> Any ideas?

In cases the attachements don't appear at the mailing list the updated ruby-ncurses PKGBUILD is located here: http://github.com/gauteh/arch/tree/master/ruby-ncursesw/ (don't use it thou, it might be helpful for anyone who want to get sup to work on 1.9.2) You can find the old PKGBUILDS for ruby here: p378: http://repos.archlinux.org/wsvn/packages/ruby/trunk/?rev=75260&peg=75260 but p429 should probably also work: http://repos.archlinux.org/wsvn/packages/ruby/trunk/?rev=84971&peg=84971 checkout the wiki or manpage on how to use 'makepkg'. - gaute ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

I filed a bug report (with a somewhat bad title) sometime yesterday: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/20733 > actually, ive never used sup beacuse it refuses to find my mail (notmuch has no issues) because its not in {cur,new,tmp} subdirs. nor does it seem to recursively dig. but i spent a while and there was just too much code to read, so i wrote my own webmail [ http://gitorious.org/element/element/blobs/master/ruby/W/mail.rb ] Hmm, not sure what issue you ran into there. The way it works for me: everything lands in the inbox at the mail provider, offlineimap pulls it to my machine, sup indexes it, done. > well, TMail is totally broken on 1.9.2, and RMail (as sup uses) and Mail (from TMail's maintainer and now abandoner) is simply way too slow as theyre pure-ruby > > unless you install activeSupport 2.3.x which has a hacked tmail that runson 1.9.x > > anyways.. i'm trying to figure out a good permanent solution to this, and it seems to involve rewriting eveyrthing in HAskell..
