Hello all, I would like to ask for some comments on issues I have compiling/installing mutt in my $HOME.
I do this: {{{ % hg sum parent: 6346:3306cb186f49 tip Merge stable into default branch: default commit: 1 modified, 3 unknown update: (current) % ./configure --prefix=${HOME}/local --disable-pop --disable-imap \ --disable-smtp --enable-gpgme --with-curses --enable-external-dotlock % make && make install }}} These are the problems I see at the moment: A. --enable-external-dotlock does not seem to be recognised. Not that important. I need a mutt_dotlock not changing EUID, because my Maildir is in an encfs mount. root cannot do anything in there. B. compiling works, but installing stops at: chgrp: changing group of `${HOME}/local/bin/mutt_dotlock': Operation not permitted Can't fix mutt_dotlock's permissions! This is required to lock mailboxes in the mail spool directory. I am not root, so I can't chgrp. The make install stops here. Maybe some more steps are missing. C. my mutt version does not display UTF8 properly. Umlauts are not printed in the pager. Do I miss a configuration or a library? Thanks, Bastian Here is the output of mutt -v: {{{ % mutt -v Mutt 1.5.22+18 (3306cb186f49) (2013-10-16) Copyright (C) 1996-2009 Michael R. Elkins and others.
