Re: Those wildly unofficial Pine 4.20 debs



I've (unofficially of course :-) fixed this flaw in a new revision of the
package which I'll be handing over to Noah to put up on his page shortly.

This also fixes the "bug in ld.so" message some people were getting.  I
still don't know what caused it.  Some library incompatibility in potato I
guess but in any case it's gone now.
