Package: logwatch
Version: 7.3.6.cvs20080702-1
Severity: normal
/var/cache/logwatch is not created during the install process and thus logwatch
fails to do anything useful until it is created. I believe this to be a policy
violation, but I could be wrong. If I'm right this bug should be upgraded to
serious and it should be fixed for lenny.
