Package: notmuch-mutt Version: 0.30-1 Severity: important Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer,
After recently updating from stable to testing, notmuch-mutt search and thread commands stopped including results from my "Sent Items" maildir folder. There are broken links in the results folder, and symlink error messages in the terminal window after exiting mutt. I tracked this down to upstream commit <https://git.notmuchmail.org/git?p=notmuch;a=commitdiff;h=1fcf068e331b9b79e14f79c8b126711fc3d72cbb> but unfortunately my shell-fu is not good enough to understand exactly why the new version isn't working. If I manually swap revert the diff then my Sent Items results start working again. So somehow the backslash-escaping works for xargs but not for the shell while/read loop. Here's the part of the commit above causing the breakage. - - - - - - - - - diff --git a/contrib/notmuch-mutt/notmuch-mutt b/contrib/notmuch-mutt/notmuch-mutt index 0e46a8c1b95e76163eed68694aa5a1a973c8b371..d33223bdd88e776acf79ae8b4ba2703ff1e6cc58 100755 (executable) --- a/contrib/notmuch-mutt/notmuch-mutt +++ b/contrib/notmuch-mutt/notmuch-mutt @@ -50,7 +50,7 @@ sub search($$$) { empty_maildir($maildir); system("notmuch search --output=files $dup_option $query" .
