Unrelated, but just for reduction of the severity, Gentoo applies depending on what the user wants, ~22 patches.[1] > Debian 42 > Fedora 7 > Suse 2 > > Mutt seems to be held hostage to the downstream patches. > > > So please don't. > > No middleground whatsoever? As one of the persons responsible for rebasing the patches, I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, I know it's a mess, and probably fixing that would make it easier to figure out how to forward port a patch this time, however, it would mean having to fix all patches (ok, we do have quite some). Is it worth the hassle? If Mutt's maintainers feel this is useful, I'll forward port our patches without complaining, but I don't think I'll be voting in favour of performing these cleanups.
