Ok, did that, here's what I get: ----------------------------------------------- [root@farzaan mutt-1.3.27]# make install ./patchlist.sh < ./PATCHES > patchlist.c /bin/sh: ./patchlist.sh: Permission denied make: *** [patchlist.c] Error 126 ------------------------------------------------- patchlist.c is an empty file in the mutt source directory. just to try my luck again, I tried make install again and this time after a long list of messages going past on the terminal I am left with this: ----------------------------------------- /home/spavri/.software/mutt-1.3.27/muttlib.c:78: the use of `mktemp' is dangerous, better use `mkstemp' main.o: In function `show_version': /home/spavri/.software/mutt-1.3.27/main.c:398: undefined reference to `mutt_print_patchlist' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [mutt] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/spavri/.software/mutt-1.3.27' make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 -------------------------------------------------- Needless to say I am still running 1.3.23 as the user agent header will show. now what ? regards, Sharukh. -- Dr. Sharukh K.
