Adjust build deps to ensure that only a fixed version of the library will
be used.
Also, removed the bound thread stuff, which I now think was (probably)
a red herring.
MountWatcher can't do this, because it uses the session dbus,
and won't have access to the new DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS if a new session
is started.
Bumped dbus library version, FD leak in it is fixed.
Currently relies on SRV being set, or the JID's hostname being the server
hostname and the port being default. Future work: Allow manual
configuration of user name, hostname, and port.
Now when the dbus connection is dropped, it'll fall back to polling.
I could make it try to reconnect, but there's a FD leak in the dbus
library, so not yet.
This uses the ADNS library, if available. Otherwise, the host program.
I anticipate that cabal users won't easily get hsdns installed, since
it's a Haskell binding to a C library. And using host is just fine, as
long as the system has it.
This *may* solve the segfault I was seeing when the XMPP library called
startTLS. My hypothesis is as follows:
* TLS is documented
(http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/manual/gnutls.html#Thread-safety)
thread safe, but only when a single thread accesses it.
* forkIO threads are not bound to an OS thread, so it was possible for
the threaded runtime to run part of the XMPP code on one thread, and
then switch to another thread later.
So, forkOS, with its bound threads, should be used for the XMPP thread.
Since the crash doesn't happen reliably, I am not yet sure about this fix.
Note that I kept all the other threads in the assistant unbound, because
bound threads have significantly higher overhead.
For now, when dbus goes away, the assistant keeps running but does not fall
back or reconnect. To do so needs more changes to the DBus library; in
particular a connectSessionWith and connectSystemWith to let me specify
my own clientThreadRunner.
So, it might be called sha1sum, or on some other OS, it might be called
sha1. It might be hidden away off of PATH on that OS. That's just expected
insanity; UNIX has been this way since 1980's. And these days, nobody even
gives the flying flip about standards that we briefly did in the 90's
after the first round of unix wars.
But it's the 2010's now, and we've certainly learned something.
So, let's make it so sometimes sha1 is a crazy program that wants to run as
root so it can lock memory while prompting for a passphrase, and outputting
binary garbage. Yes, that'd be wise. Let's package that in major Linux
distros, too, so users can stumble over it.
