Errors after upgrade => 0.9.1

[robert-winkler]

Hi, for using bleeding edge alot, I purged the Ubuntu 20.04 version and installed from git; v. 0.9.1 Errors from alot -d debug -l alot.log:

INFO:utils:Unknown values were found in `/home/rob/.config/alot/config`. Please check for typos if a specified setting does not seem to work:
search
ERROR:manager:unable to load hooks file:/home/rob/.config/alot/hooks.py  

This is correct: file hooks.py is not existing. How can I create it?

I open a HTML file and get an error:

DEBUG:utils:command: w3m -dump -o document_charset=UTF-8 '/tmp/i038sx_6.html'
DEBUG:utils:parms: ('text/html=', 'charset=UTF-8')

TypeError: set_focus() got an unexpected keyword argument 'valign'

The later is a bit annoying, because in HTML emails I get a read error message (TypeError: set_focus() got an unexpected keyword argument 'valign').

Just add an empty python file under that name. This error should not be critical.

I open a HTML file and get an error:

Huh. I remember that there was some "recent" change in the urwidtrees package. Perhaps I forgot to make a release there and increment the dependencies in alot? Please check that you are running at least version 1.0.3 of urwidtrees..

I run into another dependency problem: notmuch2>=0.3; I had to manually download and compile notmuch2 and install the python binding. Sorry, I had to stop there, since I don't dare to mess up my system too much with different versions of python modules. Fortunately, 0.9.0 has all the function I need (after adding some hooks) for dealing with my 49,954 emails ;-).
