Description:

The mutt PKGBUILD (1.5.17-3) removes the executables `flea` and `muttbug` before packing the arch pkg but it yet includes the corresponding man-pages. Also, there's a man-page for mutt_dotlock included which has no executable companion.

And a wish: in the original mutt-tarball there's a tiny script called `mutt_xtitle` included in the contrib/ directory which is necessary to make mutt set the title of the X terminal. It would be very nice to have this script included into the arch pkg so people who want to use that feature don't have to download the original mutt-tarball solely to get the script.


Steps to reproduce:

pacman -S mutt && pacman -Ql mutt | grep flea
This task depends upon

i build my own mutt and even tho im trying to remove those manpages they get included in the pkg anyway. dont know why

rm -f $startdir/pkg/usr/bin/{flea,muttbug}
rm -f $startdir/pkg/usr/man/man1/flea.1.gz
rm -f $startdir/pkg/usr/man/man1/muttbug.1.gz

those last 2 lines dont take affect
