x86_64? This is in the Raspberry Pi Group. Did you pick the wrong
newsgroup to discuss this or are you trying to complile on a PC
but run Mailutils on a RPi? That's possible, but difficult, and
for this you'd be much better compiling Mailutils on the RPi
instead.

The configure script worked if you got the mailutils binaries
built, which it sounds like you did (otherwise DESTDIR will be
empty). I've never used "alien" and don't know how it goes about
making packages, but it looks like something must be going wrong
there. If you're trying to install to RPi (ARM) a package built
for x86_64, then that's definitely what's going wrong.
