Package: elog
Version: 2.6.3+r1764-1
Severity: minor
Many of the shell variables used in /etc/ini.d/elog are neither unset, nor
initialized to safe/reasonable defaults. At best this is not very robust
and could lead to unintended consequences.
I'd recommend creating '/etc/default/elog' with the following line to
explicitly clear variables used in elogd's argument list:
unset PIDFILE CONFFILE LOGBOOKDIR RESOURCEDIR PORT HOST VERBOSE

The elog package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the remaining open bugs.

this package was removed, and suggestions of possible replacements.
