Users of #GNOME#Evolution mail client: in #Debian13#Trixie, the Message-ID search (via command line) is broken. 😔
It got fixed already (see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/3079) but the fix version 3.57.1+ is too new in comparison to the Debian version 3.56.1-1.
There is a workaround to do a manual search within the UI:
Search → Advanced Search: https://gnome.pages.gitlab.gnome.org/evolution/help/mail-searching.html
"Add Condition" → switch from "Sender" to "Free Form Expression"
mid:""
It will get fixed in Debian in four years. 🙄
HTH

A dull blogpost documenting something which I fear I might have to do again on other machines.

Over a week on #Gnome and #Debian now. And I must say that I love it. Never thought that I would say this. Has it still its quirks? Yes. But way less than I thought. And Gnome + their UI framework makes the apps look so georgous now. Really impressed by the quality of all those apps. OpenSource does not need to look ugly. Seems like #libadwaita makes it really straightforward to build beautiful apps.
A big thank you to all amazing open-source contributors to that ecosystem.
Men grymt att du ska köra Linux.
Kaxigt att plocka en Framework med RISC-V. Sjukt nöjd att de gjort den. Sen är min uppfattning att det är mer av en utvecklarmaskin för att få jobba med RISC-V än en rekommenderad daily driver. Håller tummarna att det funkar bra för din del :)
Kul!
Jag bytte från #Ubuntu till #Arch i våras och visst kräver det mer, men här inte ångrat en sekund - tvärtom.
Med https://archinstall.archlinux.page/ så är det nummer grymt enkelt. Skulle jag speedtesta så går det lätt gå från stoppa in USB till färdiginstallerad och uppdaterad på under 10 minuter.
Jag valde #Gnome för min workstation, och #Hyprland för laptopen för på riktigt grotta ner, lära och få som jag vill ha det.
#Omarchy funkar toppen som inspiration att plocka delar från.
After more than 4 years in review (on and off, not continuous 😅) Wordbook by Mufeed Ali is finally in Circle!
It's a handy offline dictionary for looking up English words when you're not sure you remember the exact definition.
Congratulations 🥳
I don't exactly run an out-of-the-box setup and I know what I want to mess with in general, but gotta say the working environments are looking pretty good these days. We'll be ready for the year of Linux on the Desktop any decade now, I'm sure.
Shoutout to the Luminus project for making the actual light theme that should have always been part of GNOME.
