Hi !
I use INN as a newsserver on a UUCP-only leafsite.
Just upgraded from INN 2.2.1 to 2.2.2 and noticed that
every posted article will be batched again and again every time
batcher is called. Also the file $NEWSSPOOL/outgoing/<sitename>.uucp
does contain the entry for the article(s) to be send forever, it gets
not erased or set to zero, and so batcher batches these articles again
and again.
Using 2.2.1 (or 2.1) everything is ok, and with older versions
it has also been ok.
After having a look at batcher.c I worked out the following little
patch (see below), and now everything works fine.
Is this bug already known ?
If "inn-bugs" is a mailing-list, please answer in Cc to me, 'cause
