Package: mutt-ng
Version: 0.0+20050916-1
Severity: wishlist
Hi there.
I saw that muttng is already in the experimental repository of Debian proper and
decided to try it. My first impression on it is that it is a quite good
improvement upon mutt (e.g., the name of the variables are more consistent etc).
Unfortunately, some tools (like reportbug, when invoked with -M) call mutt
directly and it would be nice for the system administrators that installed
muttng to be able to choose what to use via the update-alternatives infra
structure provided by Debian.
I would be very grateful if it were possible to use this scheme, so that I would
use muttng in more situations.
BTW, I do see one minor problem with the naming of muttng: I see the names
mutt-ng and muttng being used without consistency in both the sites,
documentation, command line interface (the name of the executable) etc.
It would be nice to have a consistent naming.
Thanks for packaging it, Rogério Brito.
