--- Begin Message ---Package: base-files Version: 3.0.9 Severity: wishlist File: /var/log Many directories, like /etc/alternatives, have READMEs. Perhaps add one to /var/log saying what the sequence of boot/startup logs are, and which processes make them (as e.g. dlocate -S /var/log/boot finds none), etc. e.g. $ dlocate -S /var/log/faillog $ So without you saying what, why, etc. about many of these logs, the user is left scratching their heads. # dlocate README|wc -l 2111 # dlocate README|grep \ /etc|wc -l 9 so one more wouldn't hurt. I would help you write it, except I'm the kind of user who needs to read it.

--- Begin Message ---I don't think it's reasonable, and even if, not only syslogd writes into /var/log, it's not its domain, thus it should not clutter it with additional files.
