As shown below, I try to emerge pine, lynx fails to download the needed files "pine/rules.c" and "pine/rules.h" - the emerge continues however, thinking that compilation is done, and installs the documentation and configuration files but no binaries blind root # emerge pine Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) net-mail/pine-4.53-r3 to / >>> md5 ;-) pine4.53.tar.bz2 >>> md5 ;-) pine-4.53-chappa-20030203.patch.bz2 >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking pine4.53.tar.bz2 * Applying pine-4.53-chappa-20030203.patch.bz2...

Additionaly, I find it rather weird to have to install a browser to install a mail client.

Sorry about the linebreaks. :(
I am talking with Eduardo Chappa and I think he has an updated patch with the wget'd files included. more to come real-soon-now.
pine-4.53-r4 is on it's way... I am waiting for the patch to propogate to the mirrors before adding it to portage.
-r4 is now in portage with the lynxified files already included in the patch.
