I'm asking this because I'd like to get up to date w/ the news software
that I'm running. We have 2.10 here, and I have the 2.11 source. I have
tried doing an install, but basically I don't know if it succeded. I was
under the impression that 2.10 lived in /usr/new/lib/news whereas 2.11
lives in /usr/lib/news. When I installed it loked as if nothing got
created. I'm just about ready to scrub everything, and start again from
scratch, the only question is what are the steps (The 2.11 docs seem to
assume that you have everything in place). So lets just assume I do a
rm -rf /usr/new/lib/news /usr/spool/news/*
This should clean everything out real quick. Now I recompile all the
2.11 sources, but where do I go from here. Last time I tried it, the install
failed to create /usr/lib/news, and I'm a bit cautious to try doing it all
by hand when I don't really know what I'm up to.
All help gratefully received.
