Tracking down the run-time dependencies uncovered a whole bunch more
run-time configuration files. I also realized that there are useful
docs that should be installed and another install target to install
two useful configuration files. Since there are quite a few changes,
I've rendered it locally at
http://anduin.linuxfromscratch.org/~dnicholson/blfs/basicnet/tin.html
and attached the diff. Could you guys please review this before commit?
One question I have is about /etc/mailcap. It's a general
configuration file, not just for tin. From the mutt man page:
/etc/mailcap
System definition for handling non-text MIME types.
Should this be on the tin page?
