Pete,
Can you open a trac ticket on HaikuPorts for Mutt, so that we get it
rebuilt for Haiku?
Which build of Haiku are you using? I'm trying to get everything out
of /boot/common/share and r1alpha4 should have it mostly cleaned out
now.
I seem to recall running into some issue with mbrtowc when rebuilding
the OptionalPackages. It might have been that one didn't detect
something during configure, I forget what it was now, but after seeing
your email recalled having seen something that wasn't right with
mbrtowc. It might have been the 'less' issue
(https://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/8993) or something else. I should
have made a note of it at the time. If you find figure out whats up
let us know as it may affect other things. Maybe I ran into a warning
sayintg the it was already defined but the definitions didn't match?
