Unfortunately, the outcome is identical: \,,,/ (o o) ------oOOo-(_)-oOOo------ cd /usr/src cp -r mutt-1.5.20-1/ mutt-1.5.20-1.milu # copy mutt source package cd mutt-1.5.20-1.milu touch install-sh # else you'll get an error touch config.sub # ditto ./configure --build=i686-pc-cygwin --prefix=/usr/local/mutt \ --enable-imap --enable-smtp --enable-hcache --with-regex --with-ssl # configure output snipped checking build system type... configure: error: invalid value of canonical build ------------------------- Might there be something wrong with the source package for mutt?
