[neomutt-users] Compilation/configuration phase failed...

[tuxic at posteo.de]

Hi,

after unpacking neomutt-20170306 I started this script (my own)

#! /bin/sh
./prepare \
    --with-libiconv=gnu \
    --prefix=/usr/local \
    --enable-shared \
    --disable-static \
    --sysconfdir=/etc \
    --with-regex \
    --with-bdb=/usr/lib64
    --enable-everything && \
make && sudo make install

this failed with or without the line '--with-bdb=/usr/lib64'
with this message:

I am running Gentoo, but the provided gentoo-ebuild does not work for
me since it misses some definitions.

installed...so...?
