Details

The unmailboxes command causes mutt 1.5.20 from testing to segfault.

The unmailboxes command removes the specified mailboxes from the mailboxes list. However if a mailbox added with mailboxes command is unmailboxes-ed a segfault occurs. Yet this is exactly the use case for the unmailboxes command.

It can be easily reproduced with the following muttrc:

mailboxes =a
unmailboxes =a

The bug was already reported and fixed upstream:
http://dev.mutt.org/trac/ticket/3273

But if you want to ship a mutt-1.5.20 package please include this fix also in the package.

This task depends upon

FTR, the x86_64 version is still 1.5.18

The attached patch (taken from the mutt bug tracker listed) can be added to the mutt PKGBUILD as so:

patch -Np1 -i ../mutt-unmailbox.patch || exit 1

This fixes the problem for me in my local build of mutt. I think the patch should be included for the distro's build.

Just noticed the bug also affects unsubscribing from IMAP folders.
