Description Maurice Müller 2004-08-28 20:51:08 UTC
The most recent stable version is 2.4.1 and contains many new features in comparison to 2.3.5:

The second thing is that I included a short script which I created with the help of one internet site. I do not know whether it is really needed today, but my INN 2.3.5 history and database got mixed up every time I restarted my computer. So this came in very handy.

At last I introduced some new local USE variables as well as descriptions.  You should copy them to use.local.desc - portage will ignore them as well as the defaults I would like to provide somehow, but I have not found out a way.

Move the attached file into /usr/portage/net-news/inn and run "tar -xjvvf inn-2.4.1.tar.bz2" to install the files into the right place.
