Calypso is an open-source email client designed to be fast, robust, and easy to use. In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the steps to install Calypso on Void Linux.
Before we start, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
Open a terminal and run the following command to install Git:
sudo xbps-install git
Once Git is installed, we need to clone the Calypso repository from GitHub. Run the following command in your terminal to do so:
git clone https://github.com/keithp/calypso.git
This will create a new directory called "calypso" in your current directory.
Before we can build and install Calypso, we need to install the necessary dependencies. Run the following command to install them:
sudo xbps-install python3 python3-dev py-setuptools py-cffi py-openssl libxslt
Now that we've installed the dependencies, we can build and install Calypso. Change your working directory to the "calypso" directory that we cloned earlier:
cd calypso
Next, run the following command to build and install Calypso:
sudo python3 setup.py install
This will install Calypso to your system.
Now that Calypso is installed, we can run it. Run the following command in your terminal to start Calypso:
calypso
This will launch Calypso, and you can now configure your email settings and start using the application.
Congratulations! You've successfully installed Calypso on Void Linux.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
