This also crashed immediately, unsurprisingly, but it did get me the following outputPan 0.146 has some bugs related to unicode characters. I suggest you stick to English only groups.

Can anybody suggest a way of fixing the above problem. I don't use NZB files, I'm just trying to read some plain old text newsgroups.You should discuss with people knowing Mint to find a way to compile a more recent version of Pan.
I think the version mismatches are fairly final, unless I'm going to start upgrading a number of libraries myself, in advance of the distro. That can obviously cause its own problems.
Or you should upgrade to a more recent version of Mint. On Ubuntu side, you need 22.04 to get pan 0.149.
I usually like to stick with the LTS versions of Mint. Thanks for the info about needing 22.04, though, that's useful confirmation of the problem.
HTH
In a way, it did. I think you've convinced me that the trouble involved in running Pan is just too great (that's coupled with the response I got to my bug report) and I'm just going to stick with my abandonware Forte Agent for as long as it's usable.
