Package: logcheck Severity: wishlist Currently syslog-summary is only enabled if it is installed and if it is enabled in logcheck's conffile. I think enabling it by default if syslog-summary is installed would be more sane. A new option -U "Disable syslog-summary" should be added in the assumedly rare case people want to disable it on the commandline although they installed syslog-summary.
This change would only affect installations where both packages are installed and in most cases people not wanting to use this logcheck feature would not install the package syslog-summary. Letting the minority of people who install both logcheck and syslog-summary although they don't want this feature adapt their config should be preferable to letting the majority adapt theirs. In Debian most software is supposed to work just by installing it (init scripts are started by default, apache modules are enabled by just installing appropriate apache module packages ...) and I don't think logcheck and syslog-summary should be an exception.
