KDE support is broken. See #30.

[sevku]

KDE support is broken. See #30.

Why exactly has there been no progress on this?

What would have to be done?

[davesteele]

There has been no progress because no one has worked on it.

If the goal is to have it work with KDE, than it needs to be debugged by someone running that environment. This has not been a significant goal for me.

I've actually fixed that bug I think. But I'm running into another one which I'm clueless about now:

$ python gnomegmail.py

It appears to be from this. Why, I don't know.

[sevku]

Does it have to be run with Python 2.7? Or can it be run with python 3.x?

[davesteele]

It was first developed with 2.7, but I make no guarantees that it is still compatible. It is EOL.

[sevku]

@davesteele I've been looking into this a little more and I've got some questions and issues

The questtion is, how should it behave when entering an email? In my case, it literally just opens a browser with gmail.com, entering an email in the popup has no effect, it loads whatever account is currently logged in in that browser.

The other thing is that setting default email application doesn't yet work on KDE, but I will fix that if I get to it, just wanted to note that down here.

[davesteele]

That could be a bug. If there is an email being generated, the URL given by the GMail API should specify the correct user. But, in the case where you are just opening up the browser, that logic is not in place. Not something I test extensively.
