License: not specified in port

InterNetNews is a complete Usenet system.  The cornerstone of the package
is innd, an NNTP server that multiplexes all I/O. Newsreading is handled
by a separate server, nnrpd, that is spawned for each client.  Both innd
and nnrpd have some slight variances from the NNTP protocol.

  Affects: users of news/inn when upgrading to FreeBSD 12

  Author: naddy@FreeBSD.org

  Reason: 
    When upgrading from FreeBSD 11 to 12, a change in the size of the
    ino_t type causes a binary incompatibility in the overview database
    if the default tradindexed format is used.
  
    After upgrading the inn package, remove the overview/group.index
    file and regenerate the history and overview database with
    makehistory(8) before starting innd.
  
    # echo '. /usr/local/news/lib/innshellvars && \
          rm -f $OVERVIEWDIR/group.index && \
          $NEWSBIN/makehistory -O -s `wc -l <$HISTORY`' | \
          su -fm news -c '/bin/sh -s'
  
  

Convert category news to new layout.
