Beware, this is not the best bugreport ever written but I'm not
really sure what's going on here and thought I might pass on what
I've found so far.

Alright. The problem started on the weekend where newsbeuter was
binNMUed and curl was updated. After that the feed
'https://info.colgarra.priv.at/planet/rss20.xml' doesn't load any
more. The error message in the status line is either "Success" (hu?)
or "Argument list to long". The problem occurs also if I have only
this one feed in ~/.newsbeuter/urls.

First I thought it might be an ssl problem or a curl problem
but curl on the command line works without problems (I had already
tweaked the certificates before).

In newsbeuter's source package I found a hint about the debugging
option. When I run 'newsbeuter -d debug.log -l 5' I get the following
two error lines (each after trying to load this feed and these are
the only lines with ERROR:):

At the first try (automatic at startup):
[2007-05-22 00:44:43] ERROR: rss_parser::parse: mrss_parse_url_with_options 
failed: err = Success (1)

At the second try (a manual reload later):
[2007-05-22 00:44:49] ERROR: rss_parser::parse: mrss_parse_url_with_options 
failed: err = Argument list too long (1)

mrss_parse_url_with_options (and mrss_strerror) in line 68 of
src/rss.cpp is from libmrss so probably the error is there (which
would be no surprise if I look at the pages of newsbeuter and libmrss
in the BTS ;-))

What I don't quite understand is #423381 - I can't see a +b1 package
anywhere but that might be unrelated ...

Rebuilding newsbeuter and libmrss doesn't help either.


Anyway, that's where I am; I'm a little confused but maybe someone
else finds out what's going on here.

I'd gladly provide further information or do further tests; during
the next days I'll be mostly offline though.

Cheers,
gregor
