>Description:
I've created some PRs in various categories. The files reside with these permissions:
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root         1211 May 16 17:14 67

But, when I do an edit-pr 67, I get the following response from the edit-pr program. :
pr-edit: Invalid PR pending/67.


The PR resides in the GCCS directory, not the pending directory.
My default submitter is root in the config file.
Another strange thing is that in the same directory, i have another PR with number 66, with the SAME permissions
I am able to edit and modify 66, but not 67. This is just an example - its happening to many other PRs as well.

What could be the problem?
I'm attaching my categories file for reference.

#		    Possible categories for a PR.
#
# Any line which begins with a `#' is considered a comment, and GNATS
# will ignore it. 
#
# Each entry has the format:
#
# 	category:description:responsible:notify
#
# * `category' is the name of the classification for the PR.
# * `description' can be a normal text description for the
#   category, like "Development Tools" for the `tools' category.
# * `responsible' gives the name (which can be found in the remote
#   file) of the person who will be given responsibility for any PR
#   appearing in this category.
# * `notify' are other email addresses which should be given copies of
#    any PR in this category.
#
# The following category is mandatory for GNATS to work.
