pan newsreader beta out today

[Rumor]

Where do I find configure.in so that I can modify it?

/me thumps Rumor in the head with a clue.

Check the pan-0.91 directory, foo!

[Rumor]

Bah, still no go. Here's the output of sudo make:

Any clues?

Whoa. Hard to imagine your g++ doesn't like libc6-dev.

What version of g++ do you have? I have 4.0.3-1 here.

Looks like somebody has created packages for ubuntu already to save some pain:

Same here.

Cool, the .deb package worked

I gave up on newsreaders awhile ago and now I just use Google Reader. Not as robust but I don't need for it to be.

I see there is a new beta release of Pan(.92) out today:

http://pan.rebelbase.com/download/

It's a deb file and I was wondering if it would be best to not remove the old pan from the Breezy repositories that I've installed, because of all the dependencies. I've never dpkg'd a deb file before, but I've heard about "dependency hell". Thanks for any assistance.

Just built version 0.93 beta, as for the workaround for libpcre, it's in ubuntu as libpcre3 (so make sure you have the -dev), so just change it in configure.in (line 43, libpcre to libpcre3). Then it will build

[futz]

I installed 0.93 and tested it out, but it's unuseably buggy still, so I gave up and went back to 0.14.2.91

Still waiting for an Agent clone (or NewsLeecher) for linux...
