[...some minutes later...] I have dug deeper and found that line /usr/local/share/aclocal/path_dps.m4:172 is "dnl include(path_dps.m4)". The dnl at the beginning of the line IIRC signifies a comment. The m4 preprocessor should just ignore it AFAIK but despite that it tries to include the file using the directive in the comment. But I am not m4 preprocessor expert. Somebody with more knowledge about m4 should analyze this. I have also found that the file path_dps.m4 comes from the dgs-0.5.9.1_5 package, so it is not directly a mutt-devel problem. Deinstalling the dgs-0.5.9.1_5 package fixes the mutt-devel build for me. In the light of all this it is either a bug in the paths_dps.m4 file and thus dgs-0.5.9.1_5 maintainer should be notified or it is a bug in m4, though that seems a lot less likely. -- VH
