Subject:   Problems with the pan newsreader port
Message-ID:  <20000503191352.A266@parish>

I have couple of problems with the pan newsreader. Firstly,
*everytime* I start it I get:

	    parish:/usr/marko{52}% pan

	    Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library
	    User defined signal 1
	    parish:/usr/marko{53}% !!
	    pan

	    Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library

At which point it starts. I have to wait for the SIGUSR1, killing it
with Ctrl-C ``kill -USR1'' doesn't work (it kills it, but it won't
start on the second attempt). This behaviour is consistently
repeatable.

Secondly, it won't expire read articles. I see this in the log:


Pan Started
Wed May  3 19:08:44 2000 Expired 0 articles (0 were marked read) in group alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.1970s
Wed May  3 19:09:11 2000 Loaded 33113 article headers for group
alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.1970s

It claims that no articles are marked read, but they definitely are;
de-selecting "Show read articles" results in an empty window.

Does anyone have any ideas about this?
