I delete the first line, the errors about "truncated or damaged"
disappears; the other one about disk full persists.

If I do
fetchnews -f
the sessions completes without that error, the following ones have the
error (disk full).

I have groupinfo and groupinfo.old, but not groupinfo.new.
They are almost the same size now.
$ ls -l /var/spool/news/leaf.node/
total 1549
-rw-r--r-- 1 news news 788186 Jan 4 03:10 groupinfo
-rw-r--r-- 1 news news 788182 Jan 3 20:28 groupinfo.old
-rw-rw-r-- 1 news news 504 Jan 4 10:45 news.tin.it
Starting with this situation I did:
1) fetchnews -f <no errors>
and then the newsreader could receive all the articles that leafnode had
downloaded in the past sessions; I had the error about the "Groupinfo
file possibly truncated or damaged: 0 1 0 -x-" so I deleted the first
line of the new groupinfo.
2) fetchnews <error disk full>
the newsreader cannot receive new articles.
Now I have:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 news news 788178 Jan 4 11:19 groupinfo
-rw-r--r-- 1 news news 788182 Jan 3 20:28 groupinfo.old
-rw-rw-r-- 1 news news 504 Jan 4 11:18 news.tin.it
