Package: motion Version: 4.3.2-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I discovered a little issue for motion. When starting motion, it cannot be started due to the wrong permissions of /var/log/motion/. This is just a problem with the ownership (the log is owned by root), as motion iss started by user "motion". I set this bugreport to "important", because it will not start by default, however, it is easy to fix: Just set /var/log/motion/motion.log manually to owner motion:motion and it works agian. Maybe you might want to change this little issue in the next version or package. Thanks for all the work and stay healthy.
