>Organization:
Hmm
>Environment:

	Both TRN and NNTPCACHE installed.

>Description:

	Neither TRN nor NNTPCACHE install `inews' yet
	TRN wants to use inews to post articles.  Consequently,
	one can't post news articles using Pnews.

	(Perhaphs this is a good thing :-)

>How-To-Repeat:

	Pnews
	..
	.	
	.
	Check spelling, Send, Abort, Edit, or List? s
	inews: not found

>Fix:
	
	Good question!

	o	add a dependency for inn (say)
		which contains inews (from memory)

	o	have the nntpcache maintainers
		add inews?

	???

State-Changed-By: kuriyama 
State-Changed-When: Sat Dec 12 03:51:36 PST 1998 
State-Changed-Why:  
This problem can be solved only installing port news/inn later. 
"RUN_DEPENDS"ing to news/inn causes everyone who want to use trn 
as news "reader" are needed to install news/inn. 
Does this make happy trn users? 

# I haven't tried to use trn, so I'm sorry if this is a 
# silly opinion.

State-Changed-When: Thu Nov 25 14:29:51 PST 1999 
State-Changed-Why:  
This was summed up by kuriyama, a dependency on inews is not a must, 
yet there is no other solution to this problem as described.  It simply 
requires a user to configure a machine as he/she sees fit.
