Hello,
I am pursuing Master in Computer Application from Pondicherry
University, India. I am good at c++, python and git. I had a look on
Gentoo's idea page and found imapfw project very much interesting. I am
interested in contributing to imapfw, although I am new to open source
world. I would like to work on "Sychronization of mails" idea.
I did system-wide installation using distribution on Ubuntu. When I fire up
'offlineimap --v' it gives output 6.5.4. But when I give 'offlineimap'
command it shows error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/offlineimap", line 23, in <module>
oi.run()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/offlineimap/init.py", line 44, in
run
options, args = self.parse_cmd_options()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/offlineimap/init.py", line 218, in
parse_cmd_options
config.set_if_not_exists('general','dry-run','False')
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/offlineimap/CustomConfig.py", line
80, in set_if_not_exists
self.set(section, option, value)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/ConfigParser.py", line 753, in set
ConfigParser.set(self, section, option, value)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/ConfigParser.py", line 396, in set
raise NoSectionError(section)
ConfigParser.NoSectionError: No section: 'general'
I think it should ask for login password (correct me, if I understand
wrong). I also tried uninstalling system-wide installation and again
installing using cloning git repository. But it is still showing same
error.
Kindly help me set up development environment for imapfw.
*Thanks and Regards,*
Om Prakash Kumar
