Subject: xrn crashes
Content-Length: 656
When I run xrn:
I get a little window popped up when I try to read news (the group
alt.censorship, but I doubt that matters).
It prints:
Unread news in alt.censorship.
Then I hit the button to read it.
The pop-up window says:
Caught signal (11), cleaned up .newsrc and removed temp files
abort | exit [buttons]
When I hit the abort button, the program hangs, with the button
remaining in reverse video.
Then the program crashes, dumping a core.
The command line transcript:
m16-034-26% xrn &
[2] 8084
m16-034-26%
[2] Segmentation fault xrn (core dumped)
m16-034-26% ls -l core
