#13 aerc does not allow local installation 2 years ago

Ticket created by ~jamesp on ~rjarry/aerc

So I set PREFIX=$HOME/.local when I installed aerc with make install without sudo (and yes I have $PATH and $MANPATH set up so my computer can execute local binaries under $HOME/.local/bin and read local manpages under $HOME/.local/share/man) and I got this when I tried to run aerc:

Failed to load config: open /usr/local/share/aerc/aerc.conf: no such file or directory

Instead it's located in $HOME/.local/share/aerc/aerc.conf instead, as these logs from when I ran make install prove (except $HOME in this case is /home/james):

mkdir -m755 -p $HOME/.local/bin $HOME/.local/share/man/man1 $HOME/.local/share/man/man5 $HOME/.local/share/man/man7 \
        $HOME/.local/share/aerc $HOME/.local/share/aerc/filters $HOME/.local/share/aerc/templates $HOME/.local/share/aerc/stylesets

install -m644 config/default_styleset $HOME/.local/share/aerc/stylesets/default

This means that aerc just doesn't support local installation, by reading from $HOME/.local instead of from /usr or /usr/local. And I can see why, because you have to change $PATH and $MANPATH, which most people don't want to do. But for those that have, can you please add this feature? Actually, I won't expect this to go through. I went and installed the proper way with sudo.

#192 Patch sent from git.sr.ht on web does not link to user's profile 2 years ago

Ticket created by ~jamesp on ~sircmpwn/lists.sr.ht

In a patch sent from the web interface of git.sr.ht, lists.sr.ht will show the user as something like ~jamesp <jamesp@git.sr.ht>, but the ~jamesp is greyed out like it was sent from an email without a sr.ht account, not allowing you to click to the user's profile.

How it should look: ~jamesp jamesp@git.sr.ht

Also, when you click on the email address to reply to someone, the cc tag still shows their git.sr.ht email address (such as jamesp@git.sr.ht). The Cc tag should instead be set to their reply-to address.
