      To my knowledge.  I stopped using only temporarily, as I wanted to change   
   what version I'm using, but haven't actually updated the Debian package as   
   yet...

      For what?  The FTN side messages?

     Well, why not?

     What I'm referring to there is the definition of the following defaults in   
   config.make:  DEFAULT_F_NEWSLIBDIR & DEFAULT_F_NEWSSPOOLDIR.   Those are   
   different for the different versions of INN;  explictly mentioned in the   
   v4.4.10 config.make are INN 1.7, 2.2, & 2.3.4.
