Pine-4.60

The Pine package contains the Pine Mail User Agent and several server daemons for various mail protocols, in addition to some nice file and directory editing/browsing programs.

Install Pine by running the following commands:

patch -Np1 -i ../pine-4.60-fhs-3.patch &&
./build DEBUG=-O MAILSPOOL=/var/mail \
    SSLDIR=/usr SSLCERTS=/etc/ssl/certs slx &&
cp doc/*.1 /usr/share/man/man1 &&    
cd bin &&
install pine imapd ipop2d ipop3d mailutil mtest pico \
    pilot rpdump rpload /usr/bin

patch -Np1 -i ../pine-4.60-fhs.patch: This patch will make Pine use /etc for configuration files.

The build procedure for Pine is somewhat unusual, in that options usually passed as ./configure options or housed in $CFLAGS must all be passed on the command line to the ./build script.

./build slx: Pine offers quite a few target platforms, slx specifies Linux using -lcrypt to get the crypt function. See the doc/pine-ports file for more information and other authentication options.

DEBUG=-O: This flag compiles an optimized version of pine and pico that produces no debug files.

MAILSPOOL=/var/mail: Location of mail spool files, /var/mail.

SSLDIR=/usr SSLCERTS=/etc/ssl/certs: Location of OpenSSL files.

cd bin &&
install pine imapd ipop2d ipop3d mailutil mtest pico \
    pilot rpdump rpload /usr/bin

This installs Pine.

The Pine package contains pine, pico, pilot, imapd, ipop2d, ipop3d, mtest, rpload and rpdump.
