Pan 0.11.4
Pan 0.11.4 "Never discuss religion, politics, or toast" has been
released.
It can be found at http://pan.rebelbase.com/
What is Pan?
Pan is a newsreader, loosely based on Agent and Gravity, which
attempts to be pleasant to use for new and advanced users alike.
It has all the typical features found in newsreaders and also
supports offline newsreading, article filtering, multiple
connections, and a number of extra features for power users and
alt.binaries fans.
It's also the only Unix newsreader to get a perfect score on the
Good Net-Keeping Seal of Approval evaluations. See
http://pan.rebelbase.com/features.html for the rest of the
sales pitch.
About 0.11.4
This is a final courtesy bugfix release on the Gnome 1.4 branch,
consisting of about a dozen fixes already in the Gnome 2 branch,
for people who don't have root on their systems and can't upgrade
to gtk2. Everyone else is encouraged to use Pan 0.12.1 or higher
instead.
Changes Since 0.11.3
BUGFIXES
* Fixed long-standing bug that could cause Pan to crash if the
grouplist file was corrupt. Thanks to Adam M for reporting
this bug. (#72435)
* Fixed long-standing bug that would cause Pan to download only a
subset of bodies, when getting bodies for all headers.
Thanks to Si for reporting this. (#72555)
* Fixed 0.11.2 bug that didn't show HTML messages. We still don't
parse the HTML -- HTML has no place in Usenet -- but we at least
show the message now. Thanks to Himanshu J. Gohel for reporting
this bug. (#78723)
* Fixed long-standing bug that didn't create user-specified
directories when saving article bodies via "Save As...".
Thanks to Colin Leroy for reporting this bug and submitting
a patch. (#80292)
* Fixed long-standing bug that didn't properly thread articles
that had the subject header idiom "track (n/M] part (x/y)".
Thanks to gaw zay for reporting this bug. (#80901)
* Fixed lond-standing bug that caused Pan to segfault on shutdown
when it could not write the threads.txt file in the data directory.
Thanks to Corey Rogers for reporting this bug. (#81080)
* Fixed 0.11.2 bug that let the article cache grow too large.
Thanks to Bernard Debreil for reporting this bug. (#81464)
* Fixed long-standing bug that could cause Pan to crash when adding
new tasks while the task manager dialog was open. Thanks to
Thomas Gamble for reporting this bug. (#82262)
* Fixed minor bug that could give the wrong error message for
articles that users tried to post without a Subject header.
(#82828)
* Fixed long-standing bug that could cause Pan to crash when deleting
articles which had crossposts in a group that was being unloaded by
Pan. Thanks to bickingd for reporting this bug. (#82865)
* Fixed Quoted-Printable bug. Thanks to Martin Tomasek for
reporting this bug. (#84987)

gnomemm 1.3.8
*** gnomemm
The libgnome*mm libraries wrap the GNOME2 libraries for C++, for use
with gtkmm2. They are collectively known as gnomemm. This release should work
with the 'GNOME 2.0 Desktop Release Candidate' releases. You will need the
latest gtkmm2 release.
libgnomeuimm wraps libgnomeui for C++.
libgnomecanvasmm wraps libgnomecanvas for C++.
libglademm wraps libglade for C++
libgnomemm wraps libgnome for C++.
gconfmm wraps GConf for C++.
We have also provided gnomemm as one umbrella package, gnomemm-all, for your
convenience.
*** Changes:
No major changes - mostly just regenerated for the latest gtkmm.
But we have fixed the gnomemm-all build files, so we expect this to work now.
libgnomemm 1.3.6:
libglademm 1.3.3:
libgnomecanvasmm 1.3.8:
* Rebuilt for gtkmm 1.3.18
gconfmm 1.3.6:
* Build and install fixes. (Abel Cheung)
libgnomeuimm 1.3.8:
* Added libglademm dependency.
*** Download
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1161
You will need the latest unstable gtkmm2, available from the same place.
*** Installation:
The gnomemm libraries should be built and installed in this order:
libgnomemm, gconfmm, libgnomecanvasmm, libglademm, libgnomeuimm.
Or you could use the gnomemm-all umbrella package.
