How do I get pine? I tried "yum provides pine" and got lots of output, but none of it seemed to point to pine. I got the same amount of joy looking for elm. Any ideas?

there's a licensing issue with pine:
http://livna-dl.reloumirrors.net/fedora/4/SRPMS/repodata/repoview/pine-0-4.6...
"License: UW Pine license (Non OSI approved), see CPYRIGHT"

I think there are issues with pine's licence which is why it isn't in the Fedora repos. I don't remember the details, but I am sure you can google them.

Pine is not in the repository because it is under a restrictive license. The successor called Alpine is under a Apache license and is currently under review at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=249365

However, if you add Livna to your repos, you can get pine.
Hello Michael,
How do I get pine? I tried "yum provides pine" and got lots of output, but none of it seemed to point to pine. I got the same amount of joy looking for elm. Any ideas?
Yes. Head to http://rpm.livna.org/rlowiki/
Then, under the header "Repository RPMS", click on the red link for your installed version of Fedora. Mine is the first one "Fedora 7 repository RPM", since I have Fedora 7.
Go ahead and download and install that rpm. Then, type "yum install pine". You should be good to go! BTW, pine is not in the repos since the creators at the University of Washington put some sort of license or copyright on it, IIRC. I hope that helps!

You can get pine from Livna

http://www.washington.edu/pine/getpine/linux.html is one option. Although it is not clear that this works on F7 http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/pine/ has pine src rpms that you can rpmbuild.

Don't use pine any more. It's deprecated. Alpine is the new pine. It's active. Lots of things are fixed. And it's available in rpms. Grab the src.rpm, rpm -i, rpmbuild -bb, rpm -Uvh and you're in business.

is there any reason it's not already pre-built for F7 and in one of the standard repos? just curious.
