7.4G edsc bug - list does not update properly

Hello.

I reported this bug for 7.4E, but apparently it's still crawling around,
and I didn't receive any response regarding it.

After going to a meeting ("g") and reading its last transaction, the user
presses "l" to relist the meetings.  Pressing "l" should update the list
so that the meeting just exited no longer has a "c" flag.  Also, the cursor
should move down to the next changed meeting, if any.

However, edsc in 7.4 does NOT update the meetings list upon exiting a meeting.
Instead, the meeting whose last transaction has been read still is listed
with a "c" flag; also, the cursor does not move to the next changed meeting.

This is so annoying that I would not use edsc unless it is fixed.
Please fix this bug before the next release.

Thanks.
