I've updated my Mutt Debian package with the NNTP patch to the latest Debian Mutt package.

If you have Debian testing/unstable and amd64 or i386 arch, just download and install the provided packages.

For other setups, here are the quick (copy&paste) instructions:

ver=1.5.20
deb_ver=$ver-8luca1
url=https://llucax.com.nyud.net/proj/mutt-nntp-debian/files/latest
wget $url/mutt_$deb_ver.dsc $url/mutt_$deb_ver.diff.gz \
   http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/m/mutt/mutt_$ver.orig.tar.gz
sudo apt-get build-dep mutt
dpkg-source -x mutt_$deb_ver.dsc
cd mutt-$ver
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
# install any missing packages reported by dpkg-buildpackage and try again
cd ..
sudo dpkg -i mutt_${deb_ver}_*.deb mutt-patched_${deb_ver}_*.deb

See the project page for more details.

"apt-get build-dep mutt" installs the build-dependencies :)

Not if you have a different version of mutt (let's say 1.5.20-7, which doesn't depend on libtokyocabinet-dev, for instance) in your sources, because the source dependencies could change and apt will pick the ones of the version in the repo, no the ones in the version you're building.
