I'm trying to install GmailFS. I downloaded fuse and python-fuse through pacman. I get the gmailfs.tar.gz, unpack it, then copy things where they need to be according to this http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions … le-447218/
Gotten to the end of their instructions I run into two things. First of all, it tells me only root can mount at /mnt/gmail. Thats not really a problem but it'd be nice if I could give myself right to do that without sudo'ing (especially because gmailfs.log outputs to ~/gmailfs.log).
Also, When I sudo mount /mnt/gmail it says
Ignored option :rw
Ignored option :noauto
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/sbin/mount.gmailfs", line 159 in <module>
import gmailfs
File "/usr/bin/gmailfs.py", line 32, in <module>
import libgmail
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/libgmail.py", line 36, in <module>
import ClientCookie
ImportError: No module named ClientCookie
(not a copy-paste, I wrote it out b/c its on another computer--so there might be some errors)
Client cookie started coming up when I tried to install libgmail like it said in the readme, which is "python setup.py install".
I downloaded and attempted to install ClientCookie but its install script tried to download setup tools and came up with a 404 error. So what the hell is ClientCookie and why is it such a pain in the behind? Is it because I'm using python2.5?
Thanks for any help,

No love? Is this the wrong forum?

Might not work: install setuptools with pacman then try again to install ClientCookie

That totally worked, and after I'd actually read my next error message. I figured out I had to modprobe fuse once again.
Now it works, I guess, I get these strange unfortunately unfilterable emails in my box (Windows version neatly labels them GMAILFS). I'm gonna take a look at the libgmail's, and later flickrfs.
edit: if anyone knows how to enable fuse controls or the actually mount point so I don't have to sudo every time (I have to sudo mount /mnt/gmail)
Thanks for the help!
