Messaging with the L5

Hi all!

The issue with Chatty/lurch, not being able to establish an OMEMO chat with Dino, has been solved by Richard Bayerle, the maintainer of the ‘lurch’ OMEMO plugin for libpurple. I have merged the commit already into the librem5 fork, so the fix is available in the librem5 image now.

I have tested OMEMO chats successfully with Dino, Gajim, and ChatSecure.

If you guys feel like testing it by yourself with Chatty or Pidgin, please build the /dev branch of the https://github.com/gkdr/lurch repo, and don’t forget to perform a “git submodule update --init --recursive”, to pull the libomemo-changes into the lurch directory before running “make”.

Have fun!

Andrea
