Description Kristoffer Grundström 2019-05-06 00:27:33 CEST

Description of problem: I just installed Mageia 7 on my desktop using the net installation iso and I only chose to install Plasma as desktop environment. After I logged in to Plasma I checked out the Instant Message applet in the panel and as I clicked to add Telegram I got the message that it can't be setup as I need a package called morse installed and I checked with urpmq -y morse and even with dnf search morse, but there is no such package to be found in the Mageia medias (not using Testing or Backports though) or dnf database so I went to do some research and it turns out that our Plasma version needs telegram-qt and telepathy-morse to add Telegram as an account. I'm therefore adding proposal spec files to fix this. They need to be worked on though.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.1.0

How reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot the installer for Mageia Cauldron using the net based installation iso.
2. Choose to only install Plasma as desktop.
3. Login to Plasma.
4. Next to net-applet (The globe that shows you if you're connected to a network or not there is an icon that's called Instant Message if you point your cursor to it, click it.
5. Click Setup now.
6. Click Create.
7. Scroll down and click on Telegram.
8. Here's where you'll be notified that you need morse to add Telegram as an account.

Assigning to Plasma/KDE initially, but this might be for all packagers as 'telepathy' has no registered maintainer.

@Kristoffer : thank you for your work on this.

Telegram & telepathy are complicated...
We offer primarily 'get-telegram' which only enables its download; we do not have a 'telegram' package as such.
telepathy has loads of packages (none called simply 'telepathy'), of which many are '[lib64]telepathy-kde-*'.

So additional packages. But required exactly by what?
'telepathy-kde-desktop-applets' perhaps?

According to https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/telepathy-morse/ it's required by https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/telepathy-kde-accounts-kcm/ which is required by https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/telepathy-kde-desktop-applets/ and https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/telepathy-kde-meta/

The bug#20768 ask for this, should be closed as duplicated?

Comment 8 Kristoffer Grundström 2019-05-08 02:22:26 CEST

Probably. And perhaps Telegram should be removed from telepathy-kde-desktop-applets as this can't be resolved as fixed. Am I wrong? I mean, what's the point of seeing Telegram in the list of Online Accounts to add if it's not going to be integrated?

Thanks for pointing this out; that should have been spotted...
Since 20768 is the first, it is this bug to close 'duplicate'. It will be cross-referred from the other, and I will make sure it is because Kristoffer's contribution here is important.

Perhaps it might be, if we accept (from
 https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20768#c1 )
a package moribund upstream. But if it works...

> I mean, what's the point of seeing Telegram in the list of Online

True. Mageia might possibly do this integration (qualified by the old comment noted above); or heed *this* comment, and remove Telegram as an offered choice.
To persue.
