Bug (?) report: inn-2.4.3

[Ernst Boetsch]

Hello *,


"inncheck"  is warning after a  "make install"  under  "root":

   inncheck -pedantic
   /local/news/etc/control.ctl:0: mode 644, should be 640
   /local/news/etc/expire.ctl:0: mode 644, should be 640
   /local/news/etc/nntpsend.ctl:0: mode 644, should be 640
   /local/news/etc/readers.conf:0: mode 644, should be 640

I have run  "configure"  with  "--with-news-umask=022".

may prevent the warnings.


Please consider a new make target  "install-root"  specifically for all
operations which require the root login.
This would be at least the installation of "inndstart"  and 
"startinnfeed".


Kind regards,
