Hi, I'm trying to build enigmail-1.8.2 on OS/2. The problems are that OS/2 only

With this patch (ignore the changes to configure) the build dies here.


Curious me. May I ask why? I used OS/2 for a while but IBM stopped
supporting OS/2 Warp in December of 2006.

And since Enigmail is a Thunderbird extension and Thunderbird uses many
files, the executable is thunderbird.exe (11.3) for example, that do not
your fit the 8.3 file name format I would think that Thunderbird would
not run either? Perhaps not even install.

Only the DLLs are limited to 8.3, everything else is fine as long as installed on a file system that supports long names. A couple of TB DLLs do need a shortname variant.
