Package: squid Version: 3.5.23-3 Severity: normal squid Depends: logrotate
But on modern systems, logrotate is unnecessary because logs are handled (and rotated) by a centralized logging daemon. a clean squid installation shouldn't need to know or do anything with log rotation -- it just needs to know how to hand its logs over to syslog and should let the daemon deal with it. It would be great to be able to have a machine with squid, but without logrotate installed. Thanks for maintaining squid in debian! --dkg -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers testing-debug APT policy: (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'testing'), (200, 'unstable-debug'), (200, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages squid depends on: ii adduser 3.115 ii libc6 2.24-10 ii libcap2 1:2.25-1 ii libcomerr2 1.43.4-2 ii libdb5.3 5.3.28-12+b1 ii libdbi-perl 1.636-1+b1 ii libecap3 1.0.1-3.2 ii libexpat1 2.2.0-2 ii libgcc1 1:6.3.0-16 ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.15-1 ii libkrb5-3 1.15-1 ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.44+dfsg-4+b1 ii libltdl7 2.4.6-2 ii libnetfilter-conntrack3 1.0.6-2 ii libnettle6 3.3-1+b1 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-3.5 ii libsasl2-2 2.1.27~101-g0780600+dfsg-3 ii libstdc++6 6.3.0-16 ii libxml2 2.9.4+dfsg1-2.2 ii logrotate 3.11.0-0.1 ii lsb-base 9.20161125 ii netbase 5.4 ii squid-common 3.5.23-3 Versions of packages squid recommends: ii libcap2-bin 1:2.25-1 Versions of packages squid suggests: pn resolvconf <none> ii smbclient 2:4.5.8+dfsg-1 pn squid-cgi <none> pn squid-purge <none> pn squidclient <none> pn ufw <none> pn winbindd <none> -- no debconf information
