Package: tin
Version: 1:1.9.6~20100522-1
My news server does not implement CAPABILITIES. This results in tin
trying to authenticate. (This is of course a bug in itself.)
When it tries to do this authentication, it prompts the user for a
username and password and then uses AUTHINFO USER. However, I have
NNTPAUTH set and my server uses AUTHINFO GENERIC. So tin should, if
it wants to authenticate, do AUTHINFO GENERIC.
This seems to be a regression of #85274.
I will return to lenny's tin for now, but I'm happy to try versions
from sid or experimental provided they build on squeeze.
Thanks,
Ian.

Since AUTHINFO GENERIC is not supported anymore I am closing this bug.
