EMACS error "Package html2text is obsolete"

2018-11-02 Thread Ralph Seichter 
Hello list,

I tried to access https://notmuchmail.org/pipermail/notmuch/ several
times today, but it always resulted in a connection error, so I am
now trying the mailing list.

When I open a HTML message in the EMACS UI, the error message "Package
html2text is obsolete!" is displayed. Is it possible to configure
Notmuch to use SHR/EWW instead of html2text?

You probably have somewhere something like:

(setq mm-text-html-renderer 'html2text)

?

If so, drop that.

(then, it should default to 'shr since emacs 24...)

It defaults to shr as long as emacs was compiled with libxml. Otherwise
it tries to find various external commands, html2text amongst them. So I
guess Ralph could also be running an emacs install built without libxml
support.

(defcustom mm-text-html-renderer
  (cond ((fboundp 'libxml-parse-html-region) 'shr)
((executable-find "w3m") 'gnus-w3m)
((executable-find "links") 'links)
((executable-find "lynx") 'lynx)
((locate-library "html2text") 'html2text)
(t nil))
...
)

Thanks Istvan, that was the clue I needed. I rebuilt EMACS using libxml2
and now rendering HTML works.
