[Pkg-mutt-maintainers] Bug#890951: mutt: Displaying only 3 dots of a longer number of them

Package: mutt
Version: 1.9.3-1
Severity: normal

I was surprised to find that a mail message really looked awful when
displayed in Mutt.  (It was a financial report.)  But then I realized
that Mutt was not displaying all of the dots!  What?

This line should have ......................... 25 dots in it.  What
do you see?  Do you see all 25 dots?  Or just exactly three of them?
If you see 25 dots then your mutt is okay.  If you see only 3 dots
then your mutt has the bug too.

I only see three dots in the display from Mutt 1.9.3 in Sid.  Of
course if I pipe the message '|less' then I see them.  They are there.
But for some reason mutt 1.9.3 in Sid is not displaying them.

Mutt 1.7.2-1 from Stretch Stable correctly displays the dots.
Therefore the problem has appeared since then in Unstable.

Thank you for maintaining Mutt in Debian.

Bob
