Hi,

I am not really satisfied with email on the n810: modest and Claws Mail are both slow on an inbox with >3000 messages. I therefore tried alpine as a really like pine under unix.

I installed nano, untared the alpine-1.10-n800.tar.gz file from the University of Washington website. Now when I try to open ./alpine I get the message 'segmentation fault'.

Any help?

Thanks,
r

Hi, please provide an exact URL.
ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/alpine/...10-n800.tar.gz I assume ?
You have read the README in that package?

Thanks a lot for your answer.
- apt-get install ncurses-base gives me 'ncurses-base is already the newest version'
- Yes, the URL you mention is the one I downloaded from
- Yes I have made a ~/.profile file as described in the README
- I have copied the /bin to ~/bin
I am running bash, calling alpine unfortunately gives me the Segmentation fault.

Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!

Seg faults are problems in the code, usually big problems. I think the only real option here is to file a bug on Alpine.

Why don't you try looking at my notes on running Alpine on the N8x0 tablets...

http://home.mminternet.com/delaroca/index.html/

Might as well use the last released version, v2.0... I provide various binaries on my page.

What maemo version are you running? That binary is linked against openssl 0.9.7 so it looks like it was built for Chinook or earlier (poor man's ldd:

Code:
$ LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS=1 ./alpine 
	libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x4002c000)
	libcrypto.so.0.9.7 => not found
	libncurses.so.5 => /lib/libncurses.so.5 (0x40064000)
	libssl.so.0.9.7 => not found
	libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x400a4000)
	libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x400c4000)
	/lib/ld-linux.so.3 (0x40000000)
on Diablo 5.2008.43-7).

That said if you "provide" what it needs:

Code:
# ln -s  /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.7
# ln -s  /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.7
it seems to start fine here (no segmentation fault). Same goes for http://home.mminternet.com/delaroca/...alpine-2.00.gz btw.

I am not really satisfied with email on the n810
There's also mutt as another option.

Yes, but works fine on Diablo... the 1.0 binary out of UW is compiled on Bora and is not forward compatible... if need be I can generate a Diablo binary but I am away now.

Yes, Mutt is an option... myself, I am comfortable with Alpine!

I don't believe it does out of the box:

Code:
$ ./alpine-2.00 
./alpine-2.00: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.0.9.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
but both binaries seem to work fine (tested: start, connect to IMAP server with TLS, list the contents of INBOX and quit) with the above symlink kludge.

rocketscientist, what does

Code:
dpkg -S /usr/lib/libcrypto*
say on your tablet? It's possible the segmentation faults may be caused by an incompatible libssl0.9.7 package installed.

Sure, choice is good, and the more the merrier! Do you think it would be possible to package your version in maemo extras at some point?

Ok, on my n800 with TOS 5.2008.43-7 both libssl-0.9.7 and 0.9.8 are installed... so that explains what you report.

I'll try posting new binaries when I get back from travel in June.

Success! Alpine-2.00 is running after linking the libraries! Thanks everyone, this forum is really active and helpful! Particular thanks to delacora for the great website with programs - I do not know why it did not come up first in google or maemo search - it is great.
