Hello! The attached patch fixes two bugs: - In leafnode-1.9.10 and 2.0a versions beginning with a9 new groups reported by the NEWGROUPS command were not inserted into the groupinfo file. An empty pointer instead of the group name was given to insertgroup(). - leafnode versions prior to 1.9.10 and 2.0a9 inserted new groups correctly, but set the time of creation to the previous run of fetchnews instead to the actual time they were inserted. This caused problems with nntpd timeouts and tin (and probably every other newsreader), resulting in new groups never be shown as new in the client. This patch applies only to leafnode-1.9.10 and recent 2.0a versions. If you want to fix the second bug you will have to upgrade to 1.9.10 first (and apply Lloyd's patch before this one).
