Package: exim4-base
Version: 4.34-10
Severity: normal
Hi,
Debian policy[1], recommend directories have permissions of either 755
or 2755. The /var/log/exim4 directories do not. This makes is
cumbersome do a command such as 'sudo zgrep postini
/var/log/exim4/*.[0-9].gz'.
Where it would be possible, and convient, if the permissions on the
directory were 755. No other permissions need to change, on the
directories.
Thanks,
Anand
