Hi Richard,

The makehistory man page says:

  Note that the dbz(3) indexes for the history file are rebuilt by
  makedbz(8), not by makehistory as in earlier versions of INN.

However after running deleting history* and running
sudo su - news -c '/usr/lib/news/bin/makehistory -OeF -s300000'
I see:

-rw-r--r-- 1 news news 2169453 2009-01-07 13:46 history
-rw-r--r-- 1 news news      45 2009-01-07 13:46 history.dir
-rw-r--r-- 1 news news 2700000 2009-01-07 13:46 history.hash
-rw-r--r-- 1 news news 3600000 2009-01-07 13:46 history.index

You're right.  It was the behaviour only for INN 2.3.
makehistory generates dbz indexes in INN 2.4 and INN 2.5.

Thanks for having reported that.  The man page will be fixed
in INN 2.4.6 (which will be released the following week).
