| 91 | <para>This version of <application>Mutt</application> is a development
|
---|
| 92 | release. The BLFS staff has determined that it provides a stable
|

| 93 | program and fixes two issues in the current stable version of
|
---|
| 94 | <application>Mutt</application>: a segmentation fault that occurs under
|
---|
| 95 | certain conditions and a compilation problem when building with
|
---|
| 96 | <application>GCC-&gcc-version;</application>. To find the current
|
---|
| 97 | stable release, please refer to the

| 102 | This got fixed with http://dev.mutt.org/hg/mutt/rev/fe615fd5e0de

| 111 | <envar>ssl_client_cert</envar> configuration variable is recognized

| 112 | as invalid. That means you will lose the ability to use

[d5404360] | 114 | a client certification is required for authentication on an IMAP server.
