I know that there has been some talk before about building a newer version of
Mutt for stable "slink". I have an up to date system, and I am still holing

Does anyone have a Debianized Mutt v1.0.1i or v1.2? GnuPG support is my main

my opinion. I should just run

If slink's netbase is not going to include ipmasqadm, then there needs to
be a package for ipmasqadm. To go to potato's netbase cleanly, involves
many iteration.
