Asri-unix.1229 net.news.b utzoo!decvax!cca!sri-unix!sjk Thu Apr 15 02:48:12 1982 "rmgrp" bug The "rmgrp" script has a bug which can cause groups which are subgroups of the group being removed to also be removed. For example, if I run "rmgrp net.games" it will remove net.games, net.games.rogue, and net. games.pacman (assuming they all exist). This is obviously not what's desired! The fix is trivial: diff rmgrp- rmgrp 10c10 /usr/lib/news/active --- > sed /\^$i$\$/d /usr/lib/news/active scott kramer ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
