I uninstalled it some day in the past when removing the logrotate package which has dependencies to this I think. Sorry, don't remember well that one. However the behaviour described here is definitely linked to the installation of the logcheck package. Please don't hesitate contacting me if you need more info. In this case I am not quite sure what else could be meaningful. Marc, what system info exactly do you need? regards kimon > > -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
