Greetings,
running the command
eselect news read new
always returns "No news is good news" regarless of whether I run it from
my own account or from "root". And running
eselect news list
currently lists 17 news items, none of which is flagged "N" even though
I cannot remember having read them all. Maybe, my brain slowly starts
failing, but where is the "brain" of "eselect"? Where does it store
what's already read?
Sincerely,
Rainer
