Dear Darren, in fear of sending another HTML formatted tekst, I would like to explain a couple of things and am glad and understand that you only would like to point out and help me on reporting and using the mailing list.
First off I had no idea I was sending out HTML formatted text, for this I humbly apalogize so everyone on the list. Ignorance is no excuse, so I hope I have fixed that and hopefully this will not happen again. At work I use Gmail to send e-mail and I think Google should make their "Convert to plain text" button a bit bigger or more obvious... or I need glasses :) Second, I have been searching the list and the bug report list and could not find anything related to this. Otherwise I would not have filed a bug report. Again, ignorance is no excuse (do understand I am talking about myself here :-) ) and thus I will close the bug, and am looking forward to the new Pan. The older stable Pan is no option since it does not support NZBs (or at least I have not found it in the stable version) and it is exactly that which I use often.
This is a problem with my builds, I sent an updated deb for Breezy to Charles. If you would like me to send it to you directly I can do that. Starting with the next release I will be building separate debs for Breezy and Dapper. Since this is a packaging problem and not a problem with Pan can you go ahead and close your bug?
OK, this may seem overly harsh, but please don't take it wrong. Just... do it a bit different next time, please?
So, again I am not taking this wrong, no worries. It's better to be told calmly and politely what the rules are rather then having sworn at for being ignorant of the rules. :) So no worries. As I said above, I will pay attention to the things you pointed out, would like to apologize for the mistakes I made and will try to prevent them from hapening again. Furthermore, I don't mind using an unstable version. I admit that "playing russian roulette with my payed account" is a stupid remark especially considering I was using an unstable version. Thing is, I haven't noticed this problem before and have been using Pan for a couple of weeks without problems. With a couple of other downloads I did not have any problems so I stupidly just assumed too much stability. Mmm, you would think that all I do is apologize here today, but then again, there is reason enough for me to apologize for. Looking from your point of view this must be something like stepping on a white freshly vacuumed carpet wearing muddy shoes and walking through the whole house without noticing it. I don;t have KDE by the way, I am more of a Gnome user myself. Besides, it does indeed only do binary downloading and I do read newsgroups now and again. :-) Don't get me wrong either: I love Pan. It is quite small compared to all the M$ stuff out there, not bloated with all those features you never use (megasuperpaymelotsofmoney power search and the like), it is quite fast and looks great in Gnome :) So please keep up the good work. I will be looking forward to the new version and hopefully I can give GrabIt the old trascan-one-way-ticket treatment at some point. Cheers, Alex. ps.: if I have done something wrong again please let me know... although keep in mind that it is not on purpose I tread on people's coats and slap them in the face. _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
