Given that these additional programs are not installed, I believe that operation of certain nmh functionality will fail, utterly, when invoked, due to the possible/probable absence of these programs. The specific programs involved are: giftoppm djpeg pbmtoxwd pgmtopbm ppmtopgm xwud The above are all referenced within various of the mhshow-show-image/* lines within the default installed /usr/local/etc/nmh/mhn.defaults file. >How-To-Repeat: portinstall mail/nmh head /usr/local/etc/nmh/mhn.defaults >Fix: Add dependencies, as necessary in order to insure that whenever nmh is installed from the ports collection, each and all of the above listed "helper" programs will also be installed. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
