EMACS error "Package html2text is obsolete"
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 When I open a HTML message in the EMACS UI, the error message "Package html2text is obsolete!"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? -Ralph ___ notmuch mailing list notmuch@notmuchmail.org https://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch

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)) ... ) -- Istvan ___ notmuch mailing list notmuch@notmuchmail.org https://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch

* Istvan Marko: > It defaults to shr as long as emacs was compiled with libxml. Thanks Istvan, that was the clue I needed. I rebuilt EMACS using libxml2 and now rendering HTML works. -Ralph ___ notmuch mailing list notmuch@notmuchmail.org https://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch
