Subject: Weird infinite (?) loop when entering newsgroup
Date: Sat, 22 May 2004 07:24:50 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87zn81quz1.fsf@tc-1-100.kawasaki.gol.ne.jp> (raw)
I've just starting using Gnus 5.10.6 (is this group the appropriate
place to post bug reports for older versions?), and when I try to enter
the newgroup "comp.emacs", it never seems to succeed, instead printing
out an infinite series of messages; I think I've succesfully entered
that newsgroup using 5.10.6 before (yesterday :-) though.
Here are the messages:
Retrieving newsgroup: comp.emacs...
Fetching headers for comp.emacs...
Created backup copy of overview in /home/miles/.gnus/agent/nntp/nnrp.gol.com/comp/emacs/.overview~6~.

[Not sure if I should include the .overview file -- it's about 50KB
compressed.]
Any ideas?
Thanks,
