RHBA-2012:1143 - mutt bug fix update

Synopsis

mutt bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

Updated mutt packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

Description

Mutt is a text-mode mail user agent. Mutt supports color, threading, arbitrary key remapping, and a lot of customization.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Prior to this update, the mutt agent failed to allow interruptions during getch calls. As a consequence, the signal "SIGINT" (Ctrl-C) was not handled correctly when waiting for user input. This update modifies the underlying code to allow interruptions. (BZ#313291)

All users of mutt are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/articles/11258
