Indeed, the configuration we have in /usr/share/logwatch/dist.conf
(which overrides /usr/share/logwatch/default.conf) seems correct and no
longer uses "messages".

At least in Trusty, it seems like named.conf refers to daemon.log and
not messages/syslog anymore.

Still running into this. One thought: Instead of changing all of those
'LogFile = messages' lines to 'LogFile = syslog', why not do a
distribution override
(/usr/share/logwatch/dist.conf/logfiles/messages.conf) to cause
'messages' to instead look at /var/log/syslog et al?

@Robie: Any progreess here? I noticed that awhile back I had
inadvertently changed the status from triaged to confirmed. I am unable
to change it back to triaged. Robie, could you please change the status
back to triaged?
Is there some reason why this has not gone anywhere? Earlier I proposed
I wish there was an edit feature.
I found this while browsing for a fix:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=407611&action=diff#/usr/share/logwatch/scripts/shared/applystddate.orig_sec2
Could this be implemented into ubuntu's logwatch package?

This has existed for close to a year now, and (to me at least) doesn't
appear to be fixed. I had this same issue some time back, and re-
installed inetutils-syslogd to fix this, since logwatch doesn't work.
Is there any immediate work around?

Every service that specifies 'LogFile = messages' in its LogWatch .conf
file (there are 40 of them) is now dead in LogWatch. I would propose
one of the following fixes:
1) Remove the 'LogFile = messages' line completely from all of the
aforementioned .conf files. The result will be that the defa
@Craig
Thanks for taking the time to find the duplicates. I agree with bug
752172 and have marked that duplicate. I disagree on bug 1010602 - samba
doesn't log to /var/log/messages; it logs to /var/log/samba/. So I think
that is a separate issue and have left it as-is.

Thanks, Robie, for your comments. All of the points you have made are
right on the money, and your approach is better than marking the bug(s)
as duplicates. It seems there are several logwatch bugs besides this
one (including Bug #752172 and Bug #1010602 ??) that are related to
upstream Bug #7947
Thanks Craig. It looks like you've identified the underlying cause of
the problem.
I've read bug 794727. I think that marking this bug as a duplicate will
conflate three issues:
1) The change in the rsyslog package to stop logging to /var/log/messages
(intentional, so nominally Won't Fix).
2) Th
You should consider marking this bug as a duplicate of Bug #794727.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.
Do you know if Debian also has this bug? If so, the appropriate place to
fix it would be in Debian first. Ubuntu will then pick up the fix, and
once this is done it can be backported to 12.04 if appropriate.
