GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 88255
pan.saved folder is missing and can't be accessed
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
It seems that for some reason the pan.saved folder is missing when using 0.12.1, in fact it is also missing with 0.12.90. I can't find the contents either, making me suspect that 0.12.1 and later actually delete the file(s) that hold the saved articles.
Fixed in pan-0-12-fix (for 0.12.2) http://cvs.gnome.org/bonsai/cvsview2.cgi?diff_mode=context&whitespace_mode=show&subdir=pan/pan&command=DIFF_FRAMESET&file=prefs.c&rev1=1.268&rev2=1.268.2.1&root=/cvs/gnome and cvs head (for 0.13.0) http://cvs.gnome.org/bonsai/cvsview2.cgi?diff_mode=context&whitespace_mode=show&subdir=pan/pan&command=DIFF_FRAMESET&file=prefs.c&rev1=1.274&rev2=1.275&root=/cvs/gnome Thanks, Brian.
These fixes relate to bug #88254. Re-opening this report.
Brian: AFAIK, Pan doesn't come with a pan.saved folder. Is this one you created yourself ? Also, upgrading Pan 0.12.1 shouldn't touch the folders, so I suspect this is a problem related to going back and forth between 0.12.1 and 0.12.90.
0.12 branch is probably complete, so bumping these for investigation in 0.13.1
OK, just built 0.12.92 from source on my RH 7.3 system, if I try to access the pan.saved folder I get this: [bdm@ickx pan]$ pan ** ERROR **: I don't know what to do with header "Reply-To" aborting... Trace/breakpoint trap So it seems that this is something to do with my email reply-to: header since I use an antispam address for Usenet. BTW, pan.saved has always been there since I started using Pan seriously in the 0.10.xx versions. I did not create it myself, if I try to do that in the versions where it is not shown (0.12.92 does show it) I get a message asking me not to start folder names with "pan."
Bumped remaining bugs to 0.13.2.
Bumped remaining bugs to 0.13.3.
Is this something that anyone still cares about?
No, I created my own saved folder and now use that instead. Fine by me Charles
