Package: vlogger
Version: 1.3-3
Severity: wishlist

I found that using vlogger with programs such as awstats that expect
logs to be in an unaltered combined log format doesn't work. awstats
for example will simply die on any line that doesn't include a host.

So I made a small change to vlogger to add a -p option for
"PassThrough mode". It's a very small patch and with it vlogger won't
munge log lines at all before writing them to subdirectories as it
does normally.

The patch is here: 
http://github.com/avar/linode-etc/commit/94f0d7d22773d4430f1490ddea9858f2cbcd50e8

I didn't modify the man page or other things in the package because
this works for me and I wanted to see what the author thought of it.
