[Bug 1755755] Re: Error in Mutt sidebar when mutt is started

This is caused by the following file:

/etc/Muttrc.d/sidebar.rc

It looks like a remaining from when I used a patched version of mutt, to
have a sidebar. The sidebar has been now been added as a feature of
normal mutt, so probably this is not needed. I have moved this file out
of that directory, the error is gone and everything seems to function
normally.

So I'm closing this bug for the time being.

Title:
  Error in Mutt sidebar when mutt is started

Status in mutt package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I have Mutt configured to use the sidebar. When I start mutt, the
  following error is reported:

  Press any key to continue...ar.rc, line 4: ifdef: unknown command
  Error in /usr/lib/mutt/source-muttrc.d|, line 5: source: errors in /etc/Muttrc.d/sidebar.rc
  Error in /etc/Muttrc, line 141: source: errors in /usr/lib/mutt/source-muttrc.d|
  source: errors in /etc/Muttrc

  After pressing any key as suggested, Mutt starts without error and the
  sidebar works as expected.
