1 g shows zombie groups

1 g shows zombie groups

[Henrik Enberg]

Hi all

I just updated to the latest cvs Gnus and when I hit 1 g while unplugged, (I
use the agent) to fetch mail form my local spool all zombie groups became part
of my Group buffer.  This has never happened to me before, is this intended
behavior?

I never see this behavior.  I can't find any recent change may cause
this problem.  To narrow the problem, could you tell me when you
updated Gnus before the last update?

This happened to me twice with a Gnus checked out of CVS on 2001-07-24.  The
last update was 2 days before.  It only happened when my local spool was
empty.

It should also be noted that I updated again on July 25 and haven't seen this
since.

It seems that the active file of gnus agent is messed up.
