This excution was maintained throughout and transferred accordingly to peri= odic in 1997, resulting in daily/330.news (see e.g. commit 28dce04d1975). But as far as I see there was nevery any /etc/news.expire existing. I also asked several people but none was able to explain me what news.expire could be or was at any time... --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
