Hum, mimedecode seems to be Debian-specific and does not support the
common "make" and "make install" targets, but other than that, it looks
exactly like what's needed. URL:

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/mail/mimedecode.html


Anyways, I have SuSE 7.3 source and binary (pentium or better) RPM
packages of mimedecode 1.9 at:

http://mandree.home.pages.de/suse-7.3-i386.de/mimedecode-1.9-2.i586.rpm
http://mandree.home.pages.de/suse-7.3-i386.de/mimedecode-1.9-2.src.rpm

These packages are signed, so make sure you have gpg installed and do:

$ gpg --recv-keys 0xC58FD886
$ rpm -K mimedecode-1.9-2.i586.rpm

to avoid installing packages that have been tampered with.


The requirements list is (not sure which Red Hat or Mandrake
distributions meet these requirement, I presume any glibc 2.1.3 or glibc
2.2 distro should do that):

ld-linux.so.2
libc.so.6
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.0)
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1.3)
