   Yes, and now I try to install the GNU Mailutils source package on a Pi3B   
   with Bullseye OS. Meaning, try to rebuild the (ancient) package as is, and   
   as next steps, to replace the source tgz, do some adaptations and try to   
   get this built, also.   
      
   By some reason, Synaptic install GUI does only show the sources for a few   
   packages, and Mailutils is not among them.   
      
   /etc/apt/sources.list contains   
      
   deb http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/ bullseye main contrib non-   
   free rpi   
   # Uncomment line below then 'apt-get update' to enable 'apt-get source'   
   deb-src http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/ bullseye main contrib   
   non-free rpi   
      
   Is there one more repo to activate, so that it shows up for downloading?   
      
   Thank you!
