I think there are other means to communicate the supportedness of
packages, like the "Supported" field in the control file.
We do have reports of the same effect, that installing syslog-ng is a hassle,
just because of the this dependency, like:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/syslog-ng
I agree with @stevecs, this is rather annoying to hold the ubuntu-
minimal package, then recompile my own with a one line fix in it's
depends after each meta package update. I'm disappointed by politics
being brought into this; isn't FOSS supposed to encourage choice?

3 years later (in this thread, and over 5 from the others) and this 'political
battle' is still going on. Please resolve these dependancies. This has
nothing to do with support, it is purely a dependancy linkage issue of the
ubuntu-minimal package. This is a major pain when trying to run
I would personally suggest that sysklogd has sufficiently limited
functionality that one could justify removing it from the supported
system-log-daemon providers entirely. Doing that would cause people who
were using it due to it being the default to automatically switch to the
new default of rsys
given that rsyslog is now the official choice in karmic, would an SRU be
granted that allows installation of ubuntu-minimal and rsyslog on hardy
for example?

Karmic will be switching to rsyslog.
We don't intend to change the metapackage - doing so would actually make
it harder to switch people over to a single different standard logging
daemon, because the dependencies would still permit sysklogd so we'd end
up supporting two logging daemons indefinite
Can Jaunty just switch to syslog-ng instead? Would that resolve the main
issue for most people concerned?

I agree with the logic that syslog-ng is not a supported piece of
software, and thus using it instead of sysklogd makes ones system not
supported.
However, the current way the dependencies are specified removes all of
whatever benefits the 'ubuntu-minimal' package has to anyone who knows
syslog-ng
