Package: slrn Version: 1.0.0~pre18-1.1 Severity: minor If the configuration file has this option:
server "nntp.aioe.org" ".jnewsrc-aioe" it should use the .jnewsrc-aioe file whenever that server is accessed. However, if the server is set as: export NNTPSERVER="snews://nntp.aioe.org:563"; slrn fails to parse the hostname of the server, and thus fails to use .jnewsrc-aioe. Instead, slrn tries to use .jnewsrc. Workaround: The workaround is ugly. All combinations of URLs must be fully specified, e.g. server "nntp.aioe.org" ".jnewsrc-aioe" server "news://nntp.aioe.org"; ".jnewsrc-aioe" server "snews://nntp.aioe.org:119"; ".jnewsrc-aioe" server "news://nntp.aioe.org:119"; ".jnewsrc-aioe" server "snews://nntp.aioe.org:563"; ".jnewsrc-aioe" server "snews://nntp.aioe.org:443"; ".jnewsrc-aioe" server "snews://nntp.aioe.org:22"; ".jnewsrc-aioe" server "snews://nntp.aioe.org:80"; ".jnewsrc-aioe" server "news://nntp.aioe.org:80"; ".jnewsrc-aioe" server "news.aioe.org" ".jnewsrc-aioe" server "news://news.aioe.org"; ".jnewsrc-aioe" server "news://news.aioe.org:119"; ".jnewsrc-aioe" server "snews://news.aioe.org:119"; ".jnewsrc-aioe" server "snews://news.aioe.org:563"; ".jnewsrc-aioe" ... -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.4 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages slrn depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.36.1 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.11.3-3 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcanlock2 2b-6 library for creating and verifying ii libgnutls26 2.8.6-1+squeeze2 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libslang2 2.2.2-4 The S-Lang programming library - r ii libuu0 0.5.20-3.2 Library for decoding/encoding seve slrn recommends no packages.
