Thanks.

FWIW, watching your commits in git, I've agreed with I think every one.  
Your eye for documentation detail and catching the little things that I'd 
have simply passed over is amazing, and I'm beginning to see what the 
value of a good docs person on a team actually is.

Which is why it was equally amazing to see you miss "adress".  Of course 
it wasn't your mis-type originally, but watching your commits, that's 
exactly the type of "small" thing I've seen you catch and fix, 
repeatedly, yet it was right there in the line you changed something else 
in, and you didn't catch this one.

Must have been sleepy or distracted at the time!

Anyway, fixed now. =:^)

There were three occurrences of "adress" in the source code. One was in the

Poster e-mail adress (e87f297d) s/adress/address/

Duncan — 2012-05-21T11:42:45

Checking git whatchanged commit e87f297d, minor string edits,
looked interesting enough to git show...

Those strings need a bit /more/ minor editing...

s/adress/address/

(You've no idea how hard it is to type "adress" when you've been 
automatically double-d-ing AND double-s-ing it since you learned to type, 
over a quarter century (getting close to a third, now) ago!  I'm almost 
positive it was one of the words in my typing lessons, too, making it 
even worse!  I kept double-d-ing it above, and even on the first line of 
this paragraph, I got the adr... and had to stop and double-check, my 
fingers bewildered at this "strange word" they were being told to type 
that simply did NOT make sense!  Hopefully I don't have to use the word 
"address" later this week and screw it up now! =;^)

Meanwhile, I see the group-color fixes.  I've not actually rebuilt and 
tried it yet, but thanks (to both of you).  And the readme changes make 
sense. =:^)

Damn, I'm smart :p

Ten seconds after hitting "Send" I realized that what I wrote
was actually a hypothesis, and every hypothesis cries out to
be tested.  (I read that somewhere.)

So, I switched gtk themes and both the warning and segfault
went away.

I do see two assertions now, but I don't know if they are
significant:

(pan:13857): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_rc_get_style: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed

(pan:13857): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_style_lookup_color: assertion `GTK_IS_STYLE (style)' failed

New segfault in group-preferences editor

walt — 2012-05-20T22:32:26

Hi Heinrich.  Just pulled from git [da407793] and I get a segfault
when I try to edit group-preferences.  The warning about the missing
theme engine is not new.  "hcengine" probably refers to the "high-
color" gtk theme I'm using.  I don't know if it's now a problem for
pan, but I've seen the same warning many times before today.

warning: Could not load shared library symbols for linux-vdso.so.1.

color-groups: group-prefs set colors don't take

Duncan — 2012-05-15T18:12:07

The git commit should be in the headers.

I noticed immediately after rebuilding (first time with color-groups) 
that the group colors had reverted to black, not so good on a dark 
background, tho it's not black so I could sort of see them.

But I had read about group colors in git whatchanged, so immediately set 
out to fix things.

But while setting the color in group prefs changes it there, hitting done 
doesn't apply that change, and reopening group prefs shows no change.

But editing the xml file by hand (with pan closed) has the desired 
effect.  The (default #000000) colors were stored there, so all I had to 
do was change the existing entries as desired.

So:

1. Please fix group prefs to actually apply the chosen color.

2. Preferably, fix the default so it detects the existing text color and 
defaults to that, not simply to black.  I think you'll have to query gtk 
for it.  But if it's too hard don't bother, just fix the group prefs to 
apply the color correctly and that'll do.

[git 6120c8644] Assertion hit when using ssl

walt — 2012-04-25T22:52:59

Hi Heinrich.  Just pulled again today for testing purposes and I'm hitting
an assertion I've never seen before:

** (pan:6114): WARNING **: The certificate is not trusted.


** (pan:6114): WARNING **: The certificate hasn't got a known issuer.

pan: ../../../pan/data-impl/server.cc:209: virtual void pan::DataImpl::save_server_info(const pan::Quark&): Assertion `s' failed.
Aborted

This happens immediately after clicking on the "accept" button in
the certificate dialog box.  Technically the cert dialog box should
not pop up because the flags for that news server are already set:
    <use-ssl>1</use-ssl>
    <trust>1</trust>

I notice that pan correctly re-saves the same settings before hitting
the assertion.  (At least the time stamp on servers.xml is updated to
the current time.)

This particular cert is actually expired and I suspect the cert dialog
box is opening for that reason even though the 'trust' flag is already
set to 1.  I've seen this since I started using your gnutls code but
the assertion appear

Sorry, same thing.  Every time I click on Trust or Apply I immediately
get another identical popup dialog.  With every iteration I see another
two warnings on the console:

** (pan:32302): WARNING **: The certificate is not trusted.


** (pan:32302): WARNING **: The certificate has expired

This cycle continues until I click Cancel.

Hi Heinrich.  I just pulled again and rebuilt (git 074e20fb).  Just
as with Alan's patch I'm getting persistent popup dialogs asking me
to accept the server's certificate even though I already have the
"always trust" checkbox checked.  Here is the console output, which
repeats endlessly when I click on "accept":

** (pan:14235): WARNING **: The certificate is not trusted.


** (pan:14235): WARNING **: The certificate has expired


** (pan:14235): WARNING **: The certificate is not trusted.


** (pan:14235): WARNING **: The certificate has expired

BTW, the cert did indeed expire December 2011, but it was no doubt
self-signed by the news admin anyway, so should we really care?

Oh, sorry about that.  It has been a while since I posted to this list 
and could not remember if attachments were ok.  I've attached an actual 
patch file to this mail.  So hopefully it will get through.  If not, I 
can always try again. :)

It could be that there's another place to patch for the nzbs.  I usually 
use a different program for those.   I'll have to find something to try 
in Pan tonight.  For regular message reading or decoding, I do not get 
any pop ups to accept the cert.  Just the warning messages in the output.
