How to install the News app
---------------------------
- Install **ownCloud 5.0.5** (not released yet contains a small css fix, use the stable5 branch or 5.0.4)

    DEFINE('DEBUG', true);

- Clone the App Framework app into the **/var/www** directory::

	git clone https://github.com/owncloud/appframework.git

- Clone the News app into the **/var/www** directory::

	git clone https://github.com/owncloud/news.git


- Link both into ownCloud's apps folder::

	ln -s /var/www/appframework /var/www/owncloud/apps
	ln -s /var/www/news /var/www/owncloud/apps

- Activate the App Framework App first, then activate the News app in the apps menu

- Adjust the rights so that the webserver can write into the cache directory::

    sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/news/cache
