Thanks for the patches, and for the negotiations with the Osmo devs!

It all looks good: builds and runs, with or without Osmo support. Pushed to 
master!

Wow, *that* was fast!  Thank you so much for pushing!

Porting Osmo from legacy GtkSpell to Gspell would be nice, but relevant only 
because Balsa no longer depends on GtkSpell.

Hmmm, please correct me if I'm wrong - but this is basically a problem for 
disto packagers, isn't it?  As we communicate with Osmo just by IPC, it's more 
or less irrelevant how it is actually implemented, right?  That's what makes 
IPC so cool...

Albrecht,

I almost sent this before seeing Peter's reply, but I do have a separate issue. 
 I'm trying to install Osmo on my Gentoo box.  The ebuild their site links to 
is for 0.2.10.  I'm trying to modify it to use 0.2.14 (before I try for current 
svn version) and seem stuck on it wanting libwebkit for html rendering in order 
to get contacts.  My understanding is that libwebkit has become libwebkitgtk.  
Before I go down a rabbit hole of creating bad patches and symlinks, is the svn 
version any different in that dependency?  Do you know if they are planning on 
updating that?

To test the dbus mechanism, you'll need the branches/dbus branch from cvs. I 
used:

svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/osmo-pim/code/branches/dbus 
osmo-pim-code-dbus

and then configure --enable-dbus. The webkit dependency is now "webkit2gtk-4.0 >= 2.4.0", 
but if it fails Osmo will still build, just without the contacts page; likewise the spell checker 
dependency is "gtkspell3-3.0 >= 3.0.0", but again it doesn't seem to be a build-breaker.

I wish you success in the experiment!

Peter
