Package: diaspora-installer Version: 0.6.0.0+debian5 Severity: serious This package writes its log files into /usr rather than /var/log, which is a violation of the Debian policy.
I presume the simplest solution would be to make /usr/share/diaspora/log be a symlink to /var/log/diaspora. Then one could suggest setting up a logrotate.d file to rotate the logs.
