<clip previous discussion of problem with older versions>
I have now installed pan 0.134 on two machines, one maintaining my old
configuration (.pan2 directory) and one clean install where I manually
reconfigured my server (news.astraweb.com) and added several newsgroups
including the problem group (sci.electronics.com) but no related (likely
to have crossposts) groups. Get new headers on startup and when
entering groups is disabled in preferences. Delete old messages set to
3 months. Symptoms are the same on both systems:
- groups other than sci.electronics.design work normally
- I can get and look at new headers in sci.electronics.design, and
read the messages, with:
- get new headers, which actually gets only those headers
actually new since I last checked
- get headers for last N days
- get all headers
- get last N headers
All of these appear to work normally, however, as soon as I leave
sci.electronics.design and return, they all vanish! If the new headers
are retrieved with "get new headers in subscribed groups" or by having
get new headers on startup enabled, then the number of new messages is
shown in the groups pane but when the group is entered they all
disappear, and regardless of how headers are retrieved the headers file
(.pan2/groups/sci.electronics.design) is not updated!
When compiling 0.134, 'make check' returned errors:
....
PASS test #17 (text-massager-test.cc, 288)
FAIL test #18 (text-massager-test.cc, 293) "out == expected_out"
FAIL: text-massager-test
PASS test #1 (url-find-test.cc, 19)
