Yes indeed, which I think makes Pantalaimon a good thing to have as as standalone package regardless of the future state of FluffyChat. As mentioned in the matrix room I'll help cook up scripts, packaging, UI, whatever to make it happen.

I've been making progress on the packaging. I've got the whole thing down to under 50MB now (versus more than 200MB). Just sorting out the click package and figuring out a basic UI to start with.

@theare27 yes seems to be an issue, I haven't had a chance to dig into it yet but will look into it.

@theare27 what device did you try it on? I know I had space issues with the Nexus 5 and someone else had space problems with the FP2. I have a pre-compiled tar for armhf you can try, just unpack in the homedir and edit the config file for your homeserver. thrrgilag.net/pantalaimon.tar.gz

I want to get this into a proper click package, maybe this weekend if I can get a couple of tweaks cooked up.

I agree with the importance of working email client.
Actually, I would like to try Ubuntu Touch, and the lack of tolerable email client stops me.

I think dekko is getting close to being usable on xenial, just a matter of fixing a couple of bugs still lingering with the build. It already works great using the current stable 15.04 (vivid) release so you can take that for a spin.

By the way, its curious what would cost to adopt https://sailfishos.org/wiki/Email? Can we run their programs easily?

I believe the email app like others are not open source by Jolla. Just the framework referenced above which dekko I believe is already using. Also given that Silica is also proprietary it like other Sailfish apps would have to be modified in order to work properly.

Created a branch using your build script:

Dekko should build, install and run now!

I took it for a spin on my laptop running 18.04 but it failed. (Issue #104 I'm presuming). I tried it on another machine I have with 16.04 still and it was able to build and install. Now onto the next step and try to get things functional.
