You must first READ, then THINK, then WRITE.
I don't have any problem compiling INN, I have a problem
compiling foreign programs which use the libraries libinn.a
and libstorage.a
Look at this:
[harald@blizzard harald]$ rpm -qivl inn-devel
Name : inn-devel Relocations: (not relocateable)
Version : 2.2 Vendor: (none)
Release : 11mdk Build Date: Mon 24 Mai 1999 16:32:49
CEST
Install date: Mit 02 Jun 1999 15:07:08 CEST Build Host: data.mandrakesoft.com
Group : Development/Libraries Source RPM: inn-2.2-11mdk.src.rpm
Size : 226712 License: GPL
Summary : The INN (InterNetNews) library.
Description :
The inn-devel package contains the INN (InterNetNews) library, which
several programs that interface with INN need in order to work (for
example, newsgate and tin).
If you are installing a program which must interface with the INN
news system, you should install inn-devel.

You can see: libinn.a and libstorage.a are there, but
the header files:

[harald@blizzard include]$ ls -al

These header files (without the h.in files of course)
are needed if you compile anything with libinn.a
and libstorage.a.
Providing static libraries without header files doesn't make any sense.
