Package: sarg
Version: 2.1-4

With default cron, logrotate & squid settings under Debian, Squid's log is 
rotated every morning at 6:25, truncating /var/log/squid/access.log. This is 
acceptable default behaviour for a squid installation without sarg, but with 
sarg there are problems. eg, sarg daily reports lose 6 hours and 25 minutes 
worth of data. Weekly and Monthly reports will not work at all.

If a user is interested in daily sarge reports, then the squid log rotation 
should ideally take place at 12 AM each evening.

If a user is interested in weekly or monthy reports, sarge should run at 12 
AM (once a week or month) and then the squid log rotated immediately 
afterwards

A default sarg installation should not by default behave badly (losing 6+ 
hours data every day). It should have an option to re-configure squid log 
rotation, or at least tell the user that a manual logrotate configuration is 
necessary.
