Description Enrico Scholz 2008-07-17 21:51:30 UTC
Description of problem:

At least for el5 and fedora8, inn quotes configuration variables by single quotes while 'newsx' expects double-ones. This results in errors like

| newsx: can't create lock "'/var/run/news'/L.20052": No such file or directory

This is due to

| # su - news -s /bin/sh -c /usr/lib/news/bin/innconfval\ -s
| ...
| PATHRUN='/var/run/news'; export PATHRUN;

Attached patch fixes this.
