I recently decided to use sysklogd instead of syslog-ng. But the
command "rc-update del syslog-ng default" will not remove the file from

Is it safe to just delete the file manually? Or is this file needed by
sysklogd or something else?

Anyway, if I have time, perhaps I will try to rearrange the document to

IMHO, I think each type of install should be presented from start to
finish, without mixing up all of the steps and then relying on the
document to tell you where you go next in the document.
