I uploaded 2.99.97 to unstable last night, and the builds went very well.
However, this morning I was greeted with this:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=678484
In short: as you might now there is another mail handling package called
"mu", for "maildir-utils", packaged as maildir-utils in Debian.
http://www.djcbsoftware.nl/code/mu/
It, of course, ships a /usr/bin/mu, and we now do too.
"mu" has existed in Debian since late 2008, so we need to decide what we
want to do about this namespace clash:
- mailutils and mu conflict each other
- mailutils renames its "mu" command to something else, being the last to
introduce it
- other options?
Thanks for the feedback,
Jordi
