Hi, the attached patch fixes this bug.
I've removed the definition of EXPIRETIME from the file /etc/news/sn/debian-config, so that the only definition for that variable is found in /etc/cron.daily/sn. With regard to the previous patch I've sent to this bug, this fix only changes one conffile instead of two. I'm planning to NMU the package sn soon. Steve, would this solution work for you? Regards, Tobias -- Tobias Toedter | There cannot be a crisis next week. Hamburg, Germany | My schedule is already full.
