OK, I did not notice this

    $ sed -n 5,10p INSTALL
    Installing nmh, guided by script
    --------------------------------
    For routine installation on popular platforms, the build_nmh shell
    script can be used to guide you through configuration.  It will then
    build and optionally (with -i) install in the configured location.

thanks, good to know about the 'build_nmh' script.

I will probably start using dnf install nmh for the next release  or
for other new installs.  Nice that the package is up to date.

I assume the *.rpmnew feature is used by the rpm package, so config
files do not get clobbered in upgrades.
