It compiles, but it does not "work" (it does, but not in a multi-user
environment, so installing it in a 30-user machine is highly discouraged).

If somebody here wants to take it and fix the huge bugs it has, go ahead.

Or else: If you want to fix it but do not want to maintain it, send me
the patches and they will be included in the next release with
appropriate credits in changelog.Debian.

Thanks.

You don't have to... Tell'em to use emacs... :) Just kidding, I'm using pine
on a libc6 machine, and I _think_ it's libc6...

No, unfortunately its rather broken.  Im using the libc5 bo pine on my

Heh.. you could try :), although I don't like Mutt myself, so I went back
to libc5 Pine.

libc6 pine ?

1998-01-03 Thread Gergely Madarasz
Hello,

I was just informed (thanks, Che ;)) that there is a newer pine
source-only package in non-free... does it compile and work with libc6 ? 
I remember that a couple of months ago there were some problems with libc6
pine, I dont know if it was corrected yet... the changelog is not
informative enough... 

It would be so nice to remove libc5 from one of my machines... and pine is
the only obstacle (no, i cannot tell 30 people to switch to mutt :)) 

Greg
