I just found that when I compiled .113, I had to delete my .pan2
directory, otherwise I suffered the same effects as .112.  Maybe it
was some pan-generated config file, or a corrupted cache of some
sort...no idea.

Me either ;o)  But I know for certain that pan crashed on your machine
because it read a file which contained something it wasn't expecting.

My guess is that it was the duplicate posts that 0.111-0.112 created
as a side-effect of the 0.111 speedups.  0.113 fixes this duplication
for new headers, but doesn't retroactively fix the old ones.
See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=356070 for more info.

I'm kind of surprised that the duplicates could cause a crash,
but in the context Kevin's talking about, it makes sense.

You shouldn't have to delete your ~/.pan2 directory after every release;
that would be insane ... but, to fix any 0.111-0.112 corruption, it
wouldn't be a bad idea to rm ~/.pan2/groups/* just this once.
