Subject: gnus-slave broken
Date: Tue, 25 Jan 2011 20:10:48 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8762tcwbhz.fsf@sycorax.lbl.gov> (raw)

for a while now gnus-slave hasn't been reading any changes made by the
master gnus (read articles, new marks, etc) if the master is still
running (at least with the nnml backend that i use, other backends might
work, i didn't try). at that time i switched back to the gnus that comes
with emacs 23 but today i got bored so i decided to do a git bisect.

the first bad commit is:

7cce28b2d41e11d65102b8910ee9efc361b720ca: Add more changes related to the
new methodology for requesting backend data.

and it was made on Sept 4 (long time ago). a simple revert of the patch
doesn't work, but i did a 'git checkout
7cce28b2d41e11d65102b8910ee9efc361b720ca' which gave me a bad gnus-slave
and then i reverted the above commit and gnus-slave was once again able
to read changes made by the master while the master was still running.

i can try patches if somebody comes up with one. thanks.
