I follow the gmane.comp.file-systems.btrfs group on gmane, which of course is a news gateway to the linux-btrfs (at) vger.kernel.org btrfs development mailing list. Unfortunately, after the git repo bump to 0.138, "Der Gerät", I could no longer post. I kept getting bounces from the listserv objecting to non- mime-encoded characters in the headers. It turned out to be that ä in Gerät. Most newsservs and the nntp transpart is now almost full 8-bit-clean, including utf-8, but that's not always true of mail, obviously, so for gmane and other news2mail gateways and for replies via email, that header really does need either mime-7-bit-ascii encoded or pan's 0.138 version name changed to something else. For now, I've simply patched the offending character back into a standard ascii "a". Here's the patch, if anyone else needs it.

I have a bad connection, and I want to automagically fetch all new headers + body of the newsgroup I subscribed. I found at "Edit" -&gt; "Edit preferences" -&gt; "Actions" a way to cache new articles, settings the value "Only new (score == 0)" at the third drop down menu (labeled "Cache articles scoring at"). Unfortunately, I found that the messages are also marked as read! If I do &lt;shift&gt;+a ("get new headers in subscribed news") I can see the layout pane with some new messages, but if I select a newsgroup I found no unread messages! Is this intentional? Is a bug? Is there a "correct" way to cache all new messages in all subscribed groups? Thank you </pre> Vito 'ZeD' De Tullio 2012-05-21T20:02:36 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.apps.pan.user/13391 <pre>It seems like older versions had the ability to change this and 0.136 doesn't seem to. Is there a way to fix/change/alter this? Confirming the deletes is getting a bit tedious to say the least. Any/All help will be appreciated.

I've got everything working except for SSL. The online manual seems to indicate that I should be able to "choose secured connections" but I don't see where I can do that. I tried setting the port to 563 or 443 but Pan just fails to connect. Works fine on port 119. Am I missing a library or something? Synaptic didn't give me any errors or say anything about unresolved dependencies. SSL didn't work for me in 136 either, btw. Great newsreader. I've been running it with stunnel on Ubuntu for a few years and never had a problem.

Depending on what I tried I would get 381 errors (no password) or 502 (authentication failure). Directly editing the servers.xml file to insert the password didn't work. Turns out Pan needs gnome-keyring installed. It is not listed as a dependency. It should be. Can this be changed for future versions of Pan? </pre> Timothy J. Hamilton 2012-05-01T22:55:21 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.apps.pan.user/13345 <pre>Hi Heinrich, I finally figured out why pan is rejecting the cert from my news servers even though I click on "always trust cert" an infinite number of times. At least I think I know :) Both of my for-pay servers are smaller resellers who use certs with names that don't match the URL of the server, unlike the top-tier news providers. So my question is whether gnutls provides fine-grained methods for ignoring specific errors and allowing others? Or, should pan just not verify the cert at all if I've checked "always trust"? I'm inclined to vote for that option as long as I have at least one chance to refuse the certificate before connecting to the server. Other opinions are invited, of course. </pre> walt 2012-05-01T20:18:47 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.apps.pan.user/13329 <pre>Made a debug build, and here are crash infos : [fred&lt; at &gt;fredo-arch gui]$ gdb ./pan GNU gdb (GDB) 7.4.1 Copyright (C) 2012 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Since the os that this is running on just happens to be LMDE 201204, I added the unstable repository to my sources.lst and updated. Synaptic showed both 0.136 which I had installed anyway, and 0.136-1 which was the full version. I set synaptic to upgrade and downloaded and installed it. All dependencies were fulfilled with the exception of emacs and that errored out. So no external editor. More to follow as I test it out. robby </pre> Bob 2012-04-26T09:55:29 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.apps.pan.user/13322 <pre>Hi there I have attempted to compile Pan again using the source code available via GIT.

I saw that the latest release had Gnome-Keyring support so I built the latest version and made sure that it was built with Gnome keyring support: checking for LIBGNOME_KEYRING_1... yes However it doesn't seem to be using it, I have tried blowing away the .pan2 subdirectory and recreated the accounts but it does not seem to use the Keyring. I am running XFCE on Fedora 16 and the Gnome-Keyring-daemon is running but maybe since it doesn't detect a Gnome DE it won't use the keyring? Thanks! </pre> Darren A 2012-04-19T20:17:58 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.apps.pan.user/13303 <pre>I've been browsing pan's source code and I've noticed that a considerable number of classes don't have any comments. It might be helpful if some of those classes at least had a small description which stated its purpose and included other information, such as a brief description of how they were intended to be used. So, are patches which only add this sort of comments welcomed? If they are, where should they be sent? Thanks in advance, Rui Maciel </pre> Rui Maciel 2012-04-18T20:18:31 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.apps.pan.user/13298 <pre>I am a new user of Ubuntu (10.11), and Pan 0.133. I am a refugee from Windows XP, and a long time user of Forte Agent. I subscribe to a paid News Server. I want to try Pan, but I can't figure how to do something. I want to group selected news groups into two categories, one text, one binaries. I want to use two different News Server IP addresses and/or names for them. My paid news server does have multiple addresses. Can I? How please?

Pan is a newsreader which attempts to be pleasing to both new and experienced users. In addition to the standard newsreader features, Pan also supports yEnc, offline newsreading, article filtering, multiple connections, and more. It's also the only Unix newsreader to get a perfect score on the Good Net-Keeping Seal of Approval evaluations. About 0.136 This release introduces a plethora of bugfixes and improvements, everybody using older versions of Pan is encouraged to upgrade. This version supports binary uploading, TLS (SSL) connections, PGP handling and other nice features. Changes since 0.135 * Support for uploading attachments (with NZB creation) to Usenet. (Heinrich Müller) * Selectable Content-Transfer-Encoding. (Heinrich Müller) * Selectable GtkSpell default language. (Heinrich Müller) * Support for encrypting and signing articles with a public/private PGP key.

There's a strange glitch on the rebelbase download site, the tarballs are not in the 'source' subdir :-) -------------------- $ cat pan-0.136-betatypos.patch --- </pre> Loki Harfagr 2012-04-08T15:02:50 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.apps.pan.user/13276 <pre>System is Fedora 13 64-bit. When configure is run from the 135 source, it bails when it gets to the gmime package test. The problem is that while gmime 1.5.1-1 is installed (yum is used), but a "pc" file is not created, so pkg-config doesn't think it is on the system. What is needed to get around this issue? I have no clue as to what values to provide for GMIME_CFLAGS or GMIME_LIBS. An no, pan version 133 is the latest that is available via yum, unless someone knows a location in which to tell yum where to fetch verion 135 for installing. Thanks.

If the store is closed this invalidates the messages, so the NNTPMessage is only useful when connected to the server. I'm only connecting to leafnode on localhost. Without diving too deeply into the workings of Pan, how does Pan handle this stuff? Pan copies each message into pan2/article-cache/ using its Message-ID as the name for a unique ID, ok. Hypothetically, could Pan (or my reader) work off /var/spool/news/ message.id/ instead, which is where Leafnode caches its articles? Not that there's a real point to that, just curious. Another direction is to just keep the socket to Leafnode open, and then if it gets closed inadvertently, just open a new connection. Does that seem at all reasonable? I would prefer to deal with individual messages only at the level of NNTPMessage. thanks, Thufir </pre> Thufir 2012-04-04T15:49:02 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.apps.pan.user/13242 <pre>My news server states that ssl is available on the usual ports, but after changing the port on the server list, nothing happens. Task manager shows what I am doing in the queue, but no connections. Going back to port 119 lets everything work fine. Did I miss something. I did the installation using Scott Kuma's blog, but nothing was mentioned about ssl on non-ssl options. The headers should show the release number.
