A Debian ITP [2] is filed. > [2] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=825821 For those on -devel not up to speed on what is going on (such as me) the ITP makes interesting reading. The existing mutt maintainers have a considered plan to move to neomutt for the existing mutt packages (at least mutt-patched and quite likely mutt itself). Rather than work with the existing team Elimar has persisted with efforts to package neomutt separately and has even suggested a *different* team is set up to maintain neomutt, versus pkg-mutt. A fork by any other name smells just as sweet. -- Jonathan Dowland Please do not CC me, I am subscribed to the list. ----- End forwarded message ----- Groeten Geert Stappers -- Leven en laten leven
