The current version of news has support for NNTP, the Network News Transfer
Protocol, which allows systems that speak TCP/IP with BSD type sockets to
read news from, and post news to, a remote host. The vast majority of Unix
PC's are not in that situation, and so don't need that code. The following
patch to localize.7300, and your own localize.sh is therefore useful.
Note that if you do not apply this patch, it will not affect you one way
or the other; using it just makes your Makefile a little bit cleaner. I.e.,
this is mostly for cosmetic purposes.
