I opened a can of worms obviously. On the target system (debian) the
stock mutt-1.5.20.tgz doesn't compile because
it can't find libcurses. I have libncurses5 installed. Maybe patches
are required for debian?
On Debian the files necessary to compile a program are provided
in a separate package, called libncurses5-dev. You will need
those *-dev packages for all libraries mutt depends on.
But before doing this, try mutt 1.5.20 from backports.org.
Thanks. I lifted my system this morning from debian 4 to debian 5 and
the stock 1.3.18 (or sth.)
mutt didn't show the segfault.
I then installed 1.5.20 from a backport site and it was working fine.
A newer package for debian (unless I compile from sources) doesn't
seem to exist.
Any debian experts here? I'm getting error 404 when trying to
install further packages (e.g. strace) . Maybe I got to extend
/etc/apt/sources.list?
The only thing you need in there should be something like this
(if you use Debian Lenny):
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ lenny main
As mentioned above, I was still having edge and moved to lenny this morning.
