Updating to the current cvs or applying the > attached patch should help. If you don't want to apply a whole patch, a quick workaround is to nuke the stat(2) statement at the beginning of source_rc() (about midway through init.c), essentially undoing the original patch that caused the bug. (The downside is that you then won't benefit from error detection if you tell Mutt to source a nonexistant file, or a directory; Mutt will just fail silently.) It's also worth noting that the patch was modified again about a week ago to allow FIFOs, so if you ever decide to use one to supply an RC file, you'll find Mutt rejecting it unless you apply a newer version of the patch attached to Nicolas' message. You should really be updating to CVS anyway, since lots of bugs are fixed there, and it takes several months before a release incorporating those new fixes happens. If for some reason you're too lazy to do so, you can always get at an almost-current (generally a few days behind) snapshot by browsing my Mutt build directory [1] or a tarball [2] autogenerated from it. I have a zero-patch policy under normal circumstances (except the .po files), and an autogenerated diff [3] always tells what's different between my version and the CVS HEAD as of when the tarball was generated. - Dave [1] http://www.bigfatdave.com/dave/download/from_cvs/mutt/ [2] http://www.bigfatdave.com/dave/download/from_cvs/mutt.tgz [3] http://www.bigfatdave.com/dave/download/from_cvs/diff.mutt -- Uncle Cosmo, why do they call this a word processor?
