Note that Debian fixed this in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=295234 to look at daemon.log instead of messages (in 2005?)
That fix has been in Ubuntu for a long time, it seems too (I think since Hardy, but I might be misreading the changelog). I just spun up a Trusty VM and smartd.conf contains: LogFile = LogFile = daemon So I think this bug can be closed? ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #295234 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=295234 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to logwatch in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1199511 Title: smartd service LogFile configuration points to messages instead of syslog To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/logwatch/+bug/1199511/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
