packages directory. The RPM packages will likely work across the most recent versions of RedHat and Fedora, with a good chance of also working on Mandrake or SuSE, which also use the RPM system.
Failing all else, you can still download and build Pine as you would on any other Unix system.

These packages include Pine, Pico, and other smaller programs that are
also part of a standard pine build. UW-Imapd, which is also part of a
standard Pine build, is a program of which it is recommended to have a
better understanding, and is thus not included in these Pine packages.
For most cases, it should be enough simply to grab the first binary
package and run the following command:
If installing the binary RPM fails, you will quite likely succeed by
installing from the source RPM. You can build from source RPM either
by installing the RPM as you would the binary one, building it using
the
To install the .deb package, the following command should suffice:
As with building RPMs, the pine distribution includes a collection
of files for building .deb files yourself.
Installing RPMs
rpm -ivh pine-4.64-1.i386.rpm
This installation should succeed on most recent RedHat and Fedora
systems, and will likely succeed on recent Mandrake systems as well.
Other useful rpm commands include:
rpm -Uvh pine-4.64-1.i386.rpm
to upgrade an existing pine installation, and
rpm -e pine
to uninstall an existing pine installation.
pine.spec file that gets put in the SPECS
directory, or by running the command
rpmbuild --rebuild pine-4.64-1.i386.src.rpm
Both of these methods require having sufficient permissions to build
in the source directory; consult the instructions
for building using spec files in packages/README
to better understand how to do this.
Installing .debs
dpkg -i pine_4.64_i386.deb
Uninstalling the package can be done by running the command
dpkg -r pine
