[INN2] Probleme with inn.conf after upgrading



Hi,

I upgraded yesterday all packages of Debian testing. There was a new
package of INN.

After the download was finished and debconf configuration ended, I saw
following error:

Setting up inn2 (2.3.999+20030227-1) ...
Installing initial content for /var/lib/news/active
Installing initial content for /var/lib/news/newsgroups
update-rc.d: warning: /etc/rc2.d/S99inn2 is not a link to ../init.d/inn2

[kubi@QBI050102:~$ ls -la /etc/rc2.d/S99inn2

  Some errors occurred while unpacking. I'm going to configure the
  packages that were installed. This may result in duplicate errors
  or errors caused by missing dependencies. This is OK, only the errors
  above this message are important. Please fix them and run [I]nstall again
  Press enter to continue.
  installation script returned error exit status 100.
  Press <enter> to continue.


The news.notice-log file said:

May 22 10:10:02 QBI050102 rnews: /etc/news/inn.conf:20: parse error: saw
string, expecting semicolon or newline


But my inn.conf is unchanged and lines 15-25 are:

kubi@QBI050102:~$ head -25 /etc/news/inn.conf | tail -10

# The following parameters are most likely to need setting, although the
# defaults generated by configure may be reasonable.

mta:                    /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -oem %s
organization:          Qbi's Welt
ovmethod:               tradindexed
pathhost:               news.kubieziel.de
pathnews:               /usr/lib/news


Line 20 is the 'mta' and looks OK to me.

How can I solve this problem?

Thanks for any hints
