Thanks for the notification. We've had our fixes, and the patches we have in use for 1.5.21 seem to be working fine for quite some time now: http://dev.gentoo.org/~grobian/distfiles/mutt-1.5.21-gentoo-patches-r1.tar.bz2 Our Gentoo patches are an aggregation of bugfix commits from Mutt HG's development branch on top of the last release. This is just a Mercurial named branch I have locally here. I guess we could make that one available somewhere, so maybe more people can benefit from it. Next to this are patches, that live in a mq patchqueue. This way I can easily maintain the patches and fix them when code changes. The first kind of patches is bugfixes that Mutt developers ignore or don't agree with that they are bugs. The second kind of patches are the (usually well-known) feature patches that Mutt developers refuse to include in the source, but need to be included by popular user's demand. I took Stuart Henderson's sidebar patch, which is used in the OpenBSD port. If there is any interest between "distros" here to cooperate more closely in any way here (a central place for the latest patches, maybe? Some hg clone with just bugfixes backported?), I'm all ears. More communication like the email I reply to, is also fine with me. -- Fabian Groffen Gentoo on a different level
