Package: cacti
Version: 0.8.6c-7sarge2
Installation of cacti changes the ownership of all directories of /var/log.
This causes problems on other daemons that wan to write to logfiles and
suddenly loose their permissions. For example:
# ls -al /var/log/exim4/
total 56
drwxr-s--- 2 cacti adm 4096 Mar 6 06:26 .
drwxr-xr-x 14 cacti root 4096 Mar 6 06:26 ..
-rw-r----- 1 Debian-exim adm 2488 Mar 6 15:07 mainlog
-rw-r----- 1 Debian-exim adm 5362 Mar 6 06:07 mainlog.1
-rw-r----- 1 Debian-exim adm 551 Feb 26 06:26 mainlog.10.gz
#cat /var/log/syslog
