Phillip, I'm going to have to side with Peter Selinger here. It is absolutely unacceptable to introduce such a change without notice or warning. Other distributions do not have the problem you are attempting to justify this change with - duplicate messages - that is a problem of the default configuration in Ubuntu and not a problem with the existence of a logfile that has been THE defacto source of system messages since the beginning of time for nearly every unix admin on the planet.
To dodge the issue and push the discussion into the forums where you very well know it will die in silence is laziness and unbecoming of this distro. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/794727 Title: /var/log/messages is empty after upgrade to natty To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rsyslog/+bug/794727/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
