When F1 is pressed from the mutt index, a blank screen appears instead of the manual, even when the mutt-doc package is installed. This is because F1 is set (in /etc/Muttrc) to show the file /usr/share/doc/mutt/manual.txt, which is included in the mutt RPM but is zero-length. The manual included in mutt-doc is stored in /usr/share/doc/mutt-doc/manual.txt but is not referenced. Ideally, pressing F1 when mutt-doc is not installed would show a message suggesting that the user install mutt-doc. If it is installed, pressing F1 would show the manual.

As it is was reported against Mageia 1 it cant be closed before qa has validated it. Jerome, you also need to provide an advisory for the update

qa is already assignee for this bug. advisory: --- mutt manual wasn't shown when hitting F1. this update fixes the problem and grant users access to the manual. ---
I had to manually install mutt-doc, otherwise it just displays a message about /usr/share/doc/mutt-doc/manual.txt not being found. Should mutt-doc be added as a suggests? If not, then testing complete on i586 for the srpm mutt-1.5.21-3.1.mga1.src.rpm It displays the manual when f1 is pressed, and the mail program works.
