It turned out that the flag 'f' which adds the article files to be uploaded with their full pathname to '/var/spool/news/.outgoing/the.remote.site'. Replacing it with 'n' resulted in adding the pathname relative to the news spool directory and the script 'get-news.inn' now works as devised. :-) Looks like the INN package maintainer and the suck package maintainer should have a talk with each other, isn't it?
