Hi all,
As Forte Agent, the newsreader I've used for almost 20 years, is now
definitely abandonware, and is encountering increasing problems as
time passes, I'm trying to find an alternative, and was recommended to
try Pan.
I run 64-bit Linux Mint 20.3 (LTS version) with an XFCE desktop. When
I install Pan from the Mint/Ubuntu repositories, it appears to install
successfully, but running from the desktop results in a immediate
crash with no input.
So, I tried running from a terminal. This also crashed immediately,
unsurprisingly, but it did get me the following output
<paste>
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name
news.pan.NZB was not provided by any .service files
(pan:172437): Gtk-WARNING **: 08:23:51.653: Unable to parse
accelerator '<constrol>O' for action 'import-tasks'
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::logic_error'
what(): basic_string::_M_construct null not valid
Aborted (core dumped)
</paste>
I tried the version from Github, but there are just too many version
mismatches when building the program for me to cope with.
Can anybody suggest a way of fixing the above problem. I don't use NZB
files, I'm just trying to read some plain old text newsgroups.
Thanks,
Brian.
