Feature #12242
Adjust to Icedove → Thunderbird
100%
Description
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2017/02/msg00004.html has the details. We probably need to at least:
- drop the Claws Mail migration stuff that’s going to complicate things too much
- move and adjust any existing persistent
~/.icedove
inlive-persist
, reusing code from the/usr/bin/thunderbird
wrapper - convert any existing persistent setting for
~/.icedove
inlive-persist
- adjust everything that’s about icedove in our config tree
- adjust our doc, including: rename pages, add redirects, mention the rename
- adjust our test suite
- mention the rename in the release notes
Beware, the packaging the config folder layout will change again

Then reassign it to me so I can update the doc but it should be quick.

Thanks! I see that Bug #11964 has the same topic branch. So, just to clarify: is Feature #12242 blocked by Bug #11964 in any way?

- There’s still a link to https://tails.boum.org/doc/anonymous_internet/claws_mail_to_icedove. Rename and add redirect?
- I see ‘Note that we now need secrets for “Thunderbird”’; please file a sysadmin ticket for me to adjust our infra accordinly… or keep supporting the old name?
- wrt. commit:b3abf4e5f57d31f59ad34c4f71188fb57879b65f: this only works well if there’s at least one
persistence.conf
, which is why we usedls
previously. I expect the updated code will still work, but will spit errors to STDERR when persistence is disabled, correct? I’m no big fan of this change. - Given the AppArmor “open attachments” thing is not ready, is
Apparmor-hide-open-attachment.patch.
the right thing to do? - Care to rewrite or comment
sed -i "\_^$(escape '._' "${PRESET}")\s_d" "${CONFIG}"
? I gave up trying to understand it :/
Other than than, code review passes at commit:5d848fb956b4628ee79006a2a994d212b69fca48 :)

We agreed off-band to simply drop the migration from Claws Mail (we dropped it almost 1½ years ago).

Both are supported at the same time. If you keep your checkout of our shared secrets repo up-to-date you already have the new secrets. Is our infra not automatically doing that?

Argh, of course. Reverted!

Well, it will make it easier to test whatever is cooked up for Bug #11964 since no new thunderbird
must be built (so it can be tested live on e.g. 3.0~rc1). Also, note that the patch result is the current upstream code, and it doesn’t seem to have broken neither Thunderbird nor Firefox.

See commit:225730198e.

Tests on Jenkins are failing because we don’t do this there, it seems. Filed Bug #12559.
#14 Updated by intrigeri 2017-05-18 10:44:56
Code review passes at commit:d7ec23d7215204036bf8cb79f9bf18a535c22131. Will now build and test!
#15 Updated by intrigeri 2017-05-18 14:35:42
Passes thunderbird.feature
locally. Will now exercise the AppArmor profile a bit, with and without persistence.
#16 Updated by intrigeri 2017-05-18 15:19:23
I’ll merge this with the AppArmor profile disabled.
