Anyone have any idea what is causing it? I'm assuming I should just be able to cd to /usr/src/mutt-1.4.2.2-2 and './configure' followed by 'make install'. There also seem to be development "remains" in the source package - for example files like lib.c~ (which looks like an emacs backup file, to me), handler.c.orig000, mbox.c.cygwin, etc. - although I don't know which of those are from the original source and which from the Cygwin packaging. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
