Package: logcheck
Version: 1.2.39
Severity: normal
After a fresh install of the package I got this response:
/usr/sbin/logcheck: line 1: /var/log/syslog: Permission denied
The fix to this problem was an erroneous "adm"-entry in the group-file
rendering logcheck user not being a member of the "adm"-group. The entry
looked like this:
adm:x:4:logcheck:kimon
After a fix to this:
adm:x:4:logcheck,kimon
it works smoothely. I suspect the config-routine does not take care of
existing users in the group ?!?
