Package: exmh
Version: 1:2.7.2-3
Severity: normal
Today I ran 'exmh' for the first time, and a "Setup MH environment"
window popped up. For users who don't want 'exmh' to overwrite their
'~/Mail' folder this window's advice is in the following grepped text:
% grep -B 1 -n "install-mh" /usr/lib/exmh/mh.tcl
995-If you want your folders elsewhere, you will have to
996:exit Exmh and run the program install-mh by hand.
...but unfortunately:
% install-mh
bash: install-mh: command not found
('dlocate' can't find it either.)
I'd guess that 'install-hm' file:
1) is the correct name, or...
2) resides in some other package; call it package "X".
If 2) is the case, then maybe the 'exmh' "Depends:" field should include
package "X" -- since it tells users "you will HAVE to".
(Or the 'Setup MH environment' prompt could at least suggest installing
"X"; preferably it would suggest it only if package "X" weren't
installed.)
Hope this helps...

well, exmh is not overwriting things there but amending the environment
so that mh/nmh/exmh can work with it. as such letting exmh set up
these configurations is safe.

man install-mh would have helped :-)
as /usr/lib/mh/install-mh *is* provided by nmh.
(yes, the *mh variants use this path on purpose.)

it does depend on mh/nmh already.

exmh does a fine job configuring your mh environment; install-mh is
only for those die-hards who just *have* to do everything themselves.
i'm closing this bug.
