Building PINE 4.58 under Mandrake

Full disclosure: I'm a Linux newbie.

I'm trying to build PINE 4.58 under Mandrake Linux 9.2. I can follow directions once I understand them, but in this case I'm a tetch lost and could use some help.

Instructions say




A shell interpreter script called "build" is used to compile Pine and the other programs in the distribution. The build script is also responsible for building operating system specific symbolic links into the imap/c-client source tree.

Usage: build

may be one of the ports listed in doc/pine-ports or
clean Clean up object files and such.
Also, a good way to rebuild Pine/Pico from scratch.

"Build" by itself with no arguments is the same as typing in the previous build command with the arguments used then.

To build Pine and Pico the command "build xxx" should work where xxx is one of the targets. For example "build gul" to build Pine for Ultrix.

Looking in doc/pine-ports shows the following list:


Linux
lnx Linux using crypt from the C library
lnp Linux using Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM)
slx Linux using -lcrypt to get the crypt function
sl4 Linux using -lshadow to get the crypt() function
sl5 Linux using shadow passwords, no extra libraries
lrh RedHat 7.2 or later. Same as lnp but with SSLDIR=/usr/share/ssl,
SSLINCLUDE=/usr/include/openssl, SSLLIB=/usr/lib, GSSDIR=/usr/kerberos
lsu SuSE Linux. Same as lnp but with SSLDIR=/usr/ssl,
SSLINCLUDE=/usr/include/openssl, SSLLIB=/usr/lib




So...um...which is the appropriate choice here?

Thanks in advance, as always...
