Roundcube 1.6.0 package shows version 1.5.3 in "about"?

[necrevistonnezr]

Hi,

is there something wrong with the current Roundcube package?

The currently updated Roundcube 1.6.0. package

shows version 1.5.3 in the about screen:

I also noticed that the changelog states that "Classic" and "Larry" skins are removed (see https://roundcube.net/news/2022/07/28/roundcube-1.6.0-released) but it's still present in the Cloudron package:

I don't think it's a browser / cache issue as I get the same results in a new "private" window of my browser....

yes, I can confirm. Just checked my "about" and also index.php of the installed app, both are saying its 1.5.3.

The git repo is also missing updates to use 1.6.0 instead of 1.5.3: https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/roundcube-app/-/blob/master/Dockerfile#L6-8

Indeed, looks like I a rebuild of the previous rc version (per git history atleast).

Oh, damn!

This is actually really annoying unless a full width screen option is added to Elastic. I hate split screen columns or rows.

I pushed an updated package now.

@girish thanks. Looking good now.

AFAICT, elastic doesn't. That option does not exist in the Mailbox display preferences.

I can also confirm that it 1.6.0 defaults to elastic if you had classic or larry previously.

Yeah, I just noticed that too.

In the release notes it says:

The skins Larry and Classic are no longer part of the release packages. If you used them in your deployment, you need to install them manually. That can easily be done via Composer:

$ composer require roundcube/larry

I'm not sure how to go about doing that on Cloudron? Could you please explain and add to the Cloudron docs for Roundcube? Thanks!

Composer based plugins/skins won't work on Cloudron They modify the source code - https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/roundcube/#plugins . If someone made a "tarball" it will work though, but afaict the upstream skin is not developed anymore - https://github.com/roundcube/larry . So this is going to break very soon even if you manage to install it now somehow.

What I meant by tarball is that there are plugins like https://github.com/JohnDoh/roundcube-contextmenu#install where you can just upload them into plugins without having to rely on composer.

I had a look at https://github.com/roundcube/classic and it says:

The skin can be installed by putting the content in a subfolder of the the Roundcube's skins folder or by using composer

So I downloaded the .zip from here:

https://github.com/roundcube/classic/releases/tag/1.6.0

Then uploaded into app/data/skins using the file manager

Then unzipped it (using right click Extract here)

Then changed the permissions on the folder from root to www-data

Then went directly setting in my Roundcube instance(s) and was again able to select the Classic theme - hooray!

(overall I much prefer the look of the default Elastic theme, but mostly I want a List view with no preview pane and annoyingly Elastic doesn't have that)

I'm guessing perhaps the symlinks shown here for larry and classic can probably be removed from the package now @staff given they presumably link to nothing? (and I presume I could also just delete them too without breaking anything?)

[girish]

@jdaviescoates Yes, correct. The symlinks are probably stale. You can remove them and restart the app, they will get recreated as needed.
