| Hi,

| 
| Does anyone have any idea of what is going on and how to fix this?
| 
| Thanks a lot.

The sysklogd_1.3-29.deb package is seriously broken.  The maintainer is
working on a fix.  There is a thread on debian-devel right now
dealing with this with the thread subject of 'Something is f***ked'.
