Hi Christian,

### problem 1:  typo in /usr/lib/news/innshellvars

In /usr/lib/news/innshellvars, $GETFTP is declared like this:
GETFTP='${exec_prefix}/bin/simpleftp'

Because of the '', ${exec_prefix} is not evaluated.
"" should be used instead.

That's a genuine bug in upstream.  Thanks for having reported it.
When neither wget nor ncftpget nor ncftp is found, '${exec_prefix}/bin/simpleftp' becomes the value of $GETFTP.
This bug also affects Perl scripts.

Now fixed.  Patch here:
    http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9568



   ### problem 2:  there is no simpleftp

$GETFTP should expand to /usr/lib/news/bin/simpleftp, but the inn2
package does not provide that file.

I leave this one to Marco. Maybe "wget" should not be a suggestion for the inn2 package but a dependency, or simpleftp be shipped with the inn2 package.
