Major changes since 0.95:
- Mutt was affected by the so-called "pine remote exploit". We have
implemented a work-around we believe to be safe. See
README.SECURITY and the mailcap_sanitize option for details, and
check your mailcap files for insecure entries.
- The use_mailcap option has gone. Instead, we now have
implicit_autoview. See the manual for details.
- We have more translations than ever before. Supported languages
now include cs, de, es, fr, it, nl, pl, ru, uk. And en, as usual.
- Mutt now uses version 0.12 of the "regex" library instead of rx.
This library is believed to be far more stable than rx. See
INSTALL for details.

and used to denote that a package uses X11 headers and libraries to

notwithstanding).
This is used to ignore packages which would otherwise cause build
problems on machines with no X11 installation.
