Sorry about empty submission above, finger trouble in mailer.
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 ttfn/rjk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
