Package: lshell Version: 0.9.15.1-1 Severity: normal Hi,
When logrotate runs it generates an error message: error: skipping "/var/log/lshell/*.log" because parent directory has insecure permissions (It's world writable or writable by group which is not "root") Set "su" directive in config file to tell logrotate which user/group should be used for rotation. The persmissions on /var/log/lshell directory are as follows: drwxrwx--- 2 root lshell 4096 Apr 13 01:54 . while group never has write permissions on any other subdirectories in /var/log: ---8<--- drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 1 07:41 apt drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul 3 2011 atsar drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 13 2011 collectl drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun 23 2011 ctdb drwxr-xr-x 2 root lpadmin 4096 Apr 14 00:53 cups drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 1 1904 fsck drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 10 17:41 hp drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jan 1 1904 installer drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 5 2010 mgetty drwxr-x--- 3 root adm 4096 Sep 24 2011 samba drwxr-x--- 2 root adm 4096 Apr 13 00:46 setuid --->8--- Setting the permisions to 640 on /var/log/lshell fixes the issue.
