Dear All,

  After updating SuSE Linux 8.2 Pro to Version 9.1 Pro I noticed that
uudeview / xdeview does not work anymore.

Before I have successfully switch to locale UTF-8 and converted 
filenames and files as necessary.

Symptoms:
  Trying to uudeview/xdeview a Mozilla Newsgroupfile like 'Drafts'
  No matter what combination of options I use, it hangs up with the first
message/content in hte file and does not load any further. Decoding is 
impossible.

Any ideas ?? A bug in uudecode 0.5.20 ??

I deinstalled and installed the old version uudeview 0.5.18-125. It 
works as it used to without any problems.

Yours
John
