Package: webalizer
Version: 2.01.10-32
Severity: normal

I have a webalizer config that I've written myself (instead of using
Debconf to generate it, that is), and, among other things, it tells
Webalizer to use more than one logfile (both access.log and
access.log.1, to get immediate updates while avoiding lost record at
logfile rollover).

However, the webalizer cron script shipped with the Debian package
assumes only one logfile in the webalizer config, and will not run
webalizer when more than one is specified (it will use the
concatenation of all the logfile names in its non-emptiness and
readability checks).

I would also question whether those checks are really necessary
to begin with. After all, what are they for? If the logfile is
incorrectly specified, webalizer will say so on stderr and it
will be mailed by cron to the sysadmin, which is probably desired
behavior anyhow.
