In Ubuntu, mutt Build-Depends on elinks instead of links since a long 
time, the reason is that elinks is in Ubuntu main while links is not. 
So, since mutt is also in main, Ubuntu doesn't want to build-depend on a 
package in Ubuntu universe (ie. links), now that elinks-lite is also in 
Ubuntu main for karmic, so I decided to build-depend on elinks-lite 
since it is (as the name suggests) lite ! It doesn't pull much 
dependancies, and generating HTML manual for mutt doesn't need the bells 
& whistles of the full-fledged elinks anyways.

So I hope you would consider Build-Depending on elinks-lite too, since I 
don't think it would make life worse to Debian, and that's in order to 
minimize the differences between Debian's & Ubuntu's mutt packages.

Thanks !

patch-1.5.13.cd.ifdef.2


*** /tmp/tmpwlRThU
In Ubuntu, we've applied the attached patch to achieve the following:

  * Build-depend on elinks-lite
    + elinks-lite doesn't provide links anymore.
    + elinks-lite is now in main, and pulls less dependencies than the
      full-fledged elinks.

We thought you might be interested in doing the same.
