#37811: news/slrn 0.9.9p1 exhibits connection drops to servers

     Type:  defect         |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal         |  Milestone:
Component:  ports          |    Version:  2.1.2
 Keywords:  slrn           |       Port:  news/slrn
---------------------------+--------------------------------
 I was having difficulty maintaining connections to news.supernews.com with
 this version of slrn. I noticed there's a new version of slrn (1.0.1) that
 was released 12/2012. I tried that, and it seems to work fine. I think
 just refreshing the port might do the trick.

 Example:

 Run slrn and try to subscribe to comp.text.tex. Try to download all the
 current articles. It works for awhile and then:

 slrn fatal error:
 Server connection to news.supernews.com lost.  Cannot recover.
