The conflict, if any, is probably between Debian alpine and the pine.deb distributed by UW. I don't think this deserves a grave severity (it would if both packages were distributed by Debian). In fact, I would not consider that as a bug at all. In either case, the alpine maintainer has the final word. Thanks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
