I was playing some more with pan, and I noticed an interesting thing. I can |
| 2 |
get it to work, sort of, if I don't get a list of news groups from my server. |
| 3 |
So, if I start without .gnome/Pan file, and then answer "NO" to "do you want |
| 4 |
to get a list of newsgroups...", I can get back into it fine. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
Also, if it is messed up, I can delete .gnome/Pan but LEAVE .pan/ dir intact, |
| 7 |
and it will start up fine, but without any of my settings, obviously. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
So, now that my pan is messed up, I am erasing both .gnome/Pan and .pan/ in |
| 10 |
order to get pan to go through its setup wizard. I click next on all the |
| 11 |
screens and when it asks me if i want to get newsgroups, I say no. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Then I quit and start pan again. Everything is fine. Previously I also |
| 14 |
exported my newsgroups into .newrc file (remember, it only crashes when you |
| 15 |
try to get back into it, but it's always fine the first time!). So, I import |
| 16 |
the .newsrc file. I quit pan. I start pan, and everything is also ok this |
| 17 |
time around. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
I change my preferences so that it doesn't read the news or download articles |
| 20 |
by default. I can quit and come back ok. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Now I go to a newsgroup and get some headers. I quit and now I can't come |
| 23 |
back! Running pan with some tracing, after it's in the screwed up state: |

I've read the README file and the suggestions on gentoo-dev (and the |
| 121 |
suggestions basically reflect what the README says), and I do have every |
| 122 |
single thing installed that is requisite for running pan on non-Gnome DE. As |
| 123 |
I said, I do not normally run Gnome, but I do have all the libs installed. I |
| 124 |
am trying to use pan in KDE. |
| 125 |
|
| 126 |
pan --version: Gnome Pan 0.10.0.92 |
| 127 |
|
| 128 |
I am running Gentoo Linux, which means I have pretty much all the latest apps |
| 129 |
compiled from source. So, there is practically no chance for a library to be |
| 130 |
out of date. Using Linux 2.4.10. Please note, I run X-chat and gaim all the |
| 131 |
time, and they work just fine. |
| 132 |
|
| 133 |
If this helps to find what the problem is, great :). If you need more |
| 134 |
tracing info, just drop me a line. |
