Package: emacs-gtk
Version: 1:26.1+1-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Emacs 26.1 just landed into Debian/unstable and it breaks GNUS reading
local e-mail with the '(file)' method because the movemail configuration
changed in 26.1 as explained in the NEWS:

> ** The new option 'configure --with-mailutils' causes Emacs to rely on
> GNU Mailutils to retrieve email.  It is recommended, and is the
> default if GNU Mailutils is installed

This problem seems to have been already discussed last June in
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.gnus.general/88065
but it seems difficult to access this information right now in Gmane.

Since emacs-bin-common depends already on mailutils, configure Emacs
with
'configure --with-mailutils'
should probably fix the problem.

In the meantime, a workaround is to custom-set-variables with
'(mail-source-movemail-program "movemail.mailutils")


Thank you.
