I downloaded 1.3.99, and following the instructions in INSTALL, I also downloaded and installed libiconv, the latest version I found on the ftp site: libiconv-1.7.0.1.tar.gz. I now have /usr/local/bin/iconv, and /usr/local/doc/libiconv/, and I moved my old /usr/bin/iconv to /usr/bin/old-iconv. But when I run configure on 1.3.99, I get the subject error. Fwiw, a few lines above that, I got the following: checking version of bison... 1.25, bad So, I really have two questions. Am I simply out of luck with this "bad" bison, should I forget about upgrading to 1.3.99? Someday I'll upgrade my Linux installation, but that's a bit more intrusive than just upgrading Mutt. I'd like to take advantage of the new threading architecture, but 1.2.5 certainly works in the meantime. I was able to compile 1.2.5 ok. If the bison thing isn't fatal, how do I tell configure to use that new libiconv? I don't see any switches in mutt's INSTALL, and I don't know what I should do with libiconv except the usual configure, make, make install. All those steps proceeded without error, afaik. TIA, Jim
