<![CDATA[Dekko as click?]]>Hello,
I know Dan Chapman decided to drop click support in Dekko early this year but I wonder if anyone here is skilled enough to put some light on the topic for me.

The project itself matured a lot since its last stable release that is available in the Ubuntu store (0.6.20). The last click package I could find is version 0.9.4 which is in many ways superior to its last stable release yet there are issues which make it pretty much unusable. Reading emails work just fine, it works offline which is great but sending emails is a very risky and unreliable proses - it mostly doesn't work and doesn't have any success/failure indication. One time I can't send anything and then I send 5 emails in a row.

Here is a list of available click packages: http://people.ubuntu.com/~dpniel/dekko/clicks/

The code of Dekko has moved from GitHub to Launchpad to a custom hosting here: https://code.dekkoproject.org/dekko-dev/dekko/tree/master (it seems that as of today the project is no longer available on Launchpad?)

So I wonder, what is the problem with brining current Dekko to our Ubuntu devices? Is it because of some click limitations or that nobody just built it?

The 0.9.4 works great and I can rely on it except when I need to reply or send a new email I have to reach for my web browser and access my email via its web view.

Thank you very much for shedding some light on this issue for me.

From translating an app to programming, from writing documentation to helping on the forum, there are a lot of tasks to push this project forward. Even people with no time to spare can donate.

What I'm trying to say is that UBports and related projects are all 100% volunteer based, there isn't a big company fueling the project.

We all (you too included) are making this.

Anyway, Dekko for xenial is under development currently and we all will have a .click package when it's done.

Your Dekko app is for me one of the most used applications. I really like it and it helps me to monitor during the day in moments when I can not use my FreeBSD netbook/laptop my mails or answer them.

Said this, there is one important thing I'm missing in Dekko: A threaded view of the mails and the ability to remove a full thread on one click. I'm subscribed to a lot of technical mailing-list, esp. *@freebsd.org, openssl, gcc, ... and normally I do not read all incoming mails and decide based on the Subject: if some thread matters me or if I can help on some question/discussion. I did an analysis of my yesterday incoming mails: tech-list: 166, private-matters:3, SPAM:18, sent/bcc: 1, others:2. And most of the 166 I just deleted (by sliding right and pushing the red button). You see from where the request come of deleting full threads. I do not need this picture of the sender, I switched this avatar off (already for security reasons to not being monitored) and it just shows the letter(s) of the sender. This space of 8x8mm for me is just wasted space on the display. Maybe it could be used for threading, I don't know the API behind Dekkos UI and how much it would cost or if it is possible at all.

Having said all this (which is no critic, only a Change Request), I want to thank you for this great application and your work!

Matthias

It must be a click error then.

I would advise not to install it as it was only created to test specific features about a year ago and was not intended for use by users. But it seems to keep going around.

You should also wipe the directories mentioned in this thread before reinstalling 0.6.x

If that doesn't work then it's possibly a bug in the click tools :-S

My Meizu Pro 5 is my only phone and I rely on Dekko daily for my emails. I am looking forward for the click package for version 2... 🙂

Meanwhile I installed version 0.9.4 and then I uninstalled it because it didn't help me send emails. After that I reinstalled version 0.6.20. Now I would need help with this: everytime I restart my phone I still have Dekko 0.9.4 and I have to uninstall it again and reinstall 0.6.20. How can I permanently remove 0.9.4?

Again, a big thank you!

@bq4.5 You just need to delete the ~/.cache/dekko.dekkoproject, ~/.config/dekko.dekkoproject and ~/.local/share/dekko.dekkoproject directories to reset to default.

And thanks! 🙂

The website has links to the issue tracker and forum. 🙂

Hi Dan, thanks for the quick answer, the problem is fixed thanks.

Another question, when the next update will come? and for reporting bugs or ideas, you want us to do it here or in the new dekko website?

I am using now ubport touch 15.04(r9), Dekko is v. 0.6.20

So the story started after i did flash my phone, and i had to install dekko all over again, so after i did install it again, i did choose the offline option and since then dekko keep on crashing, so i did uninstall and install again, the problem is still there.

So any chance to wipe dekko completely out and install it all over again? The uninstall option don't delete the email settings.

Regards and great to have you back working on dekko.
