That's basically what I used to build 1.5 on my Kepler machine which is
now running CentOS with no nmh in their repository, not even 1.3 :-(. I
got permission from IT to compile it, fortunately. My full command was
this, since I didn't have permission in the spool directory (for
locking) nor /usr/local:
./configure --enable-lockdir=$HOME/var/mail --with-cyrus-sasl --with-tls
--prefix $HOME/lib/nmh
Let me expand on what Ken said:
On CentOS, as of nmh 1.6, the default is fcntl locking of the
spool file. This can be overridden using --with-locking at
configure time or in mts.conf at run time, see mh-tailor(5)
or the documentation in mts.conf itself.
--enable-lockdir only applies with dot locking. So as of 1.6,
it doesn't have any effect by itself in your configure command.
A Fedora nmh RPM might work on CentOS, though you'd need
permission to install it in the default location. As of nmh
1.6, the RPM is configured with --with-cyrus-sasl --with-tls.
mhparam needs to be fixed so that "mhparam spoollocking" obeys
mts.conf. "mhparam datalocking" does the right thing.
