Sorry to bother everyone, but I'm trying to install the pine e-mail client on my website to be accessed through SSH. I followed the instructions on the pine site (http://www.washington.edu/pine/getpine/linux.html), but when I tried to rpm the binary package I got the following error message:
when I then tried to rpm the source package, I got the following error message:
The rpmbuild command they suggested does not work either. Apprently it's not a recognised command.
The pine website and FAQ weren't very helpful, so I thought I should maybe post here to see if anyone knew what to do.
Sorry to bother you all, and thanks in advance for all your help,
Nick
