Installation, building and debugging are all slightly different
depending on your OS / distro. I'd like to make things easier.
I've split up the downloads page on the website into individual distro
pages. I'd like some simple instructions -- aimed at beginners.
https://www.neomutt.org/distro.html
The Fedora and CentOS pages are complete.
https://www.neomutt.org/distro/fedora
https://www.neomutt.org/distro/centos
Please help fill in the other pages:
Arch
Debian
FreeBSD
Gentoo
Homebrew
MacPorts
NetBSD
NixOS Linux
OpenBSD
Void Linux
Each guide is written for a beginner. It assumes that they have
performed the very minimum install of the distro.
Each page has these sections:
# Support
Which versions of your distro support NeoMutt?
Which only support Mutt?
# Installation
Are there any pre-requisites to install NeoMutt?
How do you install NeoMutt?
# Update
Will NeoMutt be updated automatically?
How do you update your copy of NeoMutt?
How do you force an update of NeoMutt?
# Removal
How do you remove NeoMutt completely?
How do you downgrade to Mutt?
# Building from Source
How do you install all the libraries and tools required to build
NeoMutt from the source code?
# Debugging
How do you install all the devel libraries and tools required to
debug NeoMutt?
Notes:
The Build and Debug sections are only concerned with dependencies.
The actual instructions to Build/Debug will be common to all distros.
Each page already exists as a template in the website repo:
https://github.com/neomutt/neomutt.github.io
Please help other people that use your distro.
Cheers,
Rich
