[leafnode-list] 1.9.33, posting trouble

[Joshua Crawford <mortarn@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I finally traced it down to the new old-directory saving in
fetchnews.c:postarticles(), the return if savedir < 1 (line 1475). Running
from cron, as user news, the programme was unable to read /var/spool/cron
(root.root 751, slackware's default). I've 'fixed' it by changing to the
spool directory in the wrapper script, before running fetchnews.Is this directory saving necessary? If so, perhaps you should add an error
message for when that test fails.
