Replacing default key
when a profile is already part of
verified groups results in
`[The message was sent with non-verified encryption. See 'Info' for more details]`
messages for other users.
It is still possible
to import the default key before
Delta Chat generates the key.
Now that we are deduplicating everywhere, we can get rid of some code.
The old python bindings did not get an optional `name` parameter because
they are deprecated anyway, but it would be easy to add it.
When receiving messages, blobs will be deduplicated with the new
function `create_and_deduplicate_from_bytes()`. For sending files, this
adds a new function `set_file_and_deduplicate()` instead of
deduplicating by default.
This is for
https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-core-rust/issues/6265; read the
issue description there for more details.
TODO:
- [x] Set files as read-only
- [x] Don't do a write when the file is already identical
- [x] The first 32 chars or so of the 64-character hash are enough. I
calculated that if 10b people (i.e. all of humanity) use DC, and each of
them has 200k distinct blob files (I have 4k in my day-to-day account),
and we used 20 chars, then the expected value for the number of name
collisions would be ~0.0002 (and the probability that there is a least
one name collision is lower than that) [^1]. I added 12 more characters
to be on the super safe side, but this wouldn't be necessary and I could
also make it 20 instead of 32.
- Not 100% sure whether that's necessary at all - it would mainly be
necessary if we might hit a length limit on some file systems (the
blobdir is usually sth like
`accounts/2ff9fc096d2f46b6832b24a1ed99c0d6/dc.db-blobs` (53 chars), plus
64 chars for the filename would be 117).
- [x] "touch" the files to prevent them from being deleted
- [x] TODOs in the code
For later PRs:
- Replace `BlobObject::create(…)` with
`BlobObject::create_and_deduplicate(…)` in order to deduplicate
everytime core creates a file
- Modify JsonRPC to deduplicate blob files
- Possibly rename BlobObject.name to BlobObject.file in order to prevent
confusion (because `name` usually means "user-visible-name", not "name
of the file on disk").

Python 3.7 is not supported on GitHub Actions ubuntu-latest runner:
https://github.com/actions/setup-python/issues/962
Python 3.7 has reached EOL more than 1 year ago anyway,
so not worth the effort supporting it.
This test keeps failing on macOS CI,
capturing events like `DC_EVENT_ACCOUNTS_ITEM_CHANGED`
before FailPlugin is setup.
These CI runners likely get less resources
because there is a limited number of them,
and this triggers this race condition.
Race is fixed by setting up fail plugin
before starting to capture events.
First of all, chatmail servers normally forbid to send unencrypted mail, so if we know the peer's
key, we should encrypt to it. Chatmail setups have `E2eeEnabled=1` by default and this isn't
possible to change in UIs, so this change fixes the chatmail case. Additionally, for chatmail, if a
peer has `EncryptPreference::Reset`, let's handle it as `EncryptPreference::NoPreference` for the
reason above. Still, if `E2eeEnabled` is 0 for a chatmail setup somehow, e.g. the user set it via
environment, let's assume that the user knows what they do and ignore `IsChatmail` flag.
NB:
- If we don't know the peer's key, we should try to send an unencrypted message as before for a
chatmail setup.
- This change doesn't remove the "majority rule", but now the majority with
`EncryptPreference::NoPreference` can't disable encryption if the local preference is `Mutual`. To
disable encryption, some peer should have a missing peerstate or, for the non-chatmail case, the
majority should have `EncryptPreference::Reset`.
Also cleaned up test_connectivity()
which tested that state does not flicker to WORKING
when there are no messages to be fetched.
The state is expected to flicker to WORKING
when checking for new messages,
so the tests were outdated since
change 3b0b2379b8
This better reflects that this state means
we just connected and there may me work to do.
This state is converted to DC_CONNECTIVITY_WORKING
instead of DC_CONNECTIVITY_CONNECTED state now.
Before this change when IMAP connected
to the server, it switched
from DC_CONNECTIVITY_NOT_CONNECTED
to DC_CONNECTIVITY_CONNECTING,
then to DC_CONNECTIVITY_CONNECTED (actually preparing)
then to DC_CONNECTIVITY_WORKING
and then to DC_CONNECTIVITY_CONNECTED again (actually idle).
On fast connections this resulted in flickering "Connected"
string in the status bar right before "Updating..."
and on slow connections this "Connected" state
before "Updating..." lasted for a while
leaving the user to wonder if there are no new messages
or if Delta Chat will still switch to "Updating..."
before going into "Connected" state again.
following `RELEASE.md`, after merging, the following is needed:
6. Tag the release: `git tag --annotate v1.151.2`.
7. Push the release tag: `git push origin v1.151.2`.
8. Create a GitHub release: `gh release create v1.151.2 --notes ''`.
As discussed in #5467 we want to use `i.delta.chat` in QR codes in favor
of `OPENPGP4FPR:` scheme. This PR does the replacement in
`get_securejoin_qr` which is used in `get_securejoin_qr_svg`.
close#5467
Let's always set `Config::NotifyAboutWrongPw` before saving configuration, better if a wrong
password notification is shown once more than not shown at all. It shouldn't be a big problem
because reconfiguration is a manual action and isn't done frequently.
Also for the same reason reset `Config::NotifyAboutWrongPw` only after a successful addition of the
appropriate device message.
