#16 parameter maxage parsed incorrectly

[Werner Flamme]

Hi, I'm using the 1.11.8rc1 rpm from the home:davjam79:console repository on download.opensuse.org. In this version, I get "warning: config: maxage cannot exceed 24854, please fix /etc/leafnode/config config: maxage (24854) > expire (40). This can cause duplicate download. Please fix your configuration, maxage must not be greater than expire." whatever value I assign to maxage. When I comment out this parameter, fetchnews runs OK. Until the last update there was no problem with "maxage = 40" and "expire = 40". Now I can write "maxage = 2" as well as "maxage = 200", but I always get this error and fetchnews does not run. Even using maxold instead of maxage does not change the error. Please restore the correct parsing before releasing 1.11.8 as a stable version ;-)

Hi Werner,

and thank you for reporting this regression.

Just to match I'm looking at the right lines, are you using a 64-bit (amd64/x86_64) architecture?

Best regards
Matthias

Matthias, thank you for your quick reaction. Yes, I'm using openSUSE 11.2 x86_64. I never thought that this might be related to the problem, or I'd have mentioned it straight away.
Regards,
Werner

Nevermind. The bug was introduced in 1.11.8-pre1, and I've fixed this in Git, so 1.11.8 will restore proper behaviour.

Thanks for the report.
