Hi.



Has anyone managed to install Gajim with OMEMO-Support? 




Checkout the thread here: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/21692



The easiest way to get it working seems to be the following (I'm sure there are better ways, but I'm too lazy to find them):



- Checkout the lastest master branch of nixpkgs

- Run `nix-env -f . -iA gajim` in the checkout

- Launch Gajim and install the OMEMO plugin via the plugin manager

- Maybe restart Gajim

- Profit



Since you have already installed the plugin via the plugin manager, you shouldn't need that step. 






I installed 

gajim with the plugin-manager (which I had to install manually), as 

apparently plugins are not packaged. Now, I normally use stable, that 

is, 16.09.1772.6e17350. When trying to activate the OMEMO plugin, it 

complains that I have to install python-axolotl. I tried the following 

in my ~/.nixpkgs/config.nix:



packageOverrides = pkgs: rec {

gajim_ = pkgs.stdenv.lib.overrideDerivation pkgs.gajim (old : {

extraPythonPackages = with pkgs.pythonPackages; [ cryptography 

python-axolotl python-axolotl-curve25519 qrcode python-axolotl ];

});



...



});



and it runs and compiles, but still, I cannot activate the OMEMO plugin. 

Then I tried to use a shell and use the unstable tree, with the 

following default.nix:



with import (builtins.toPath (builtins.getEnv "HOME" + 

"/nobackup/nixos-unstable/nixpkgs")) {};

runCommand "bash"

{

gajim_ = pkgs.stdenv.lib.overrideDerivation pkgs.gajim (old : {

extraPythonPackages = with pkgs.pythonPackages; [ cryptography 

python-axolotl python-axolotl-curve25519 qrcode python-axolotl ];

});

buildInputs = [gajim_];

} ""



when trying to build it, I get the error message



running install tests

python test/runtests.py

process 19420: arguments to dbus_move_error() were incorrect, assertion 

"(dest) == NULL || !dbus_error_is_set ((dest))" failed in file 

dbus-errors.c line 282.

This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library.

D-Bus not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace

make: *** [Makefile:986: test] Aborted

builder for 

‘/nix/store/hkrakffkg0g3lahf6r9lq5in13nwcnrm-gajim-0.16.6.drv’ failed 

with exit code 2

error: build of 

‘/nix/store/hkrakffkg0g3lahf6r9lq5in13nwcnrm-gajim-0.16.6.drv’ failed

/run/current-system/sw/bin/nix-shell: failed to build all dependencies



so I cannot really build anything with OMEMO support. I am really out of 

ideas now. How can this be done? Can somebody help, please?



It would btw be nice to have a gajim-omemo package, as many other 

distros do, since OMEMO is such an essential feature.



Best Regards
