How to install Calypso on Void Linux

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.

Prerequisites

Before we start, make sure you have the following prerequisites:

• A functioning installation of Void Linux
• A working internet connection

Step 1: Install Git

Open a terminal and run the following command to install Git:

sudo xbps-install git

Step 2: Clone the Calypso repository

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.

Step 3: Install dependencies

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

Step 4: Build and install Calypso

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.

Step 5: Run Calypso

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.
