Bug#1036658: release-notes: 5.1.8. rsyslog creates fewer log files - mail.log is not dropped
Package: release-notes
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: biebl@debian.org
Hey.
As of now, the section says that the following files are no longer
created:
- /var/log/mail.{info,warn,err,log}*
- /var/log/lpr.log*
- /var/log/{messages,debug,daemon}*
I've looked through rsyslog's changelog.Debian.gz (for version 8.2210.0-3)
as well as the commits on salsa:
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/rsyslog/-/commit/95e5e45b6e136196a7ac9ad85882391c44b641a4
AFAIU, only /var/log/mail.{info,warn,err}* are gone. mail.log is kept.
So:
/var/log/mail.{info,warn,err,log}*
should be changed to:
/var/log/mail.{info,warn,err}*
Thanks,
Chris.
PS: CCing Michael, so he can tell when I'm wrong.
