Everyone :) I am using Debian testing/unstable. I wished to get rid of klogd,sysklogd, cron/anacron - I did so.
Every damn service pointing to scheduled tasks got uninstalled, too (slogrotate, and so on). My question now is, if this surgery is without complications if regarded from the operational point of view. Are those services really important if using Debian for common desktop tasks, not willing to see any logs or more or less detailed reports in file format. Is or was in any case logging done the same way? I mean is syslog really covering the entire logging infra structure or are some programs using there own scheme of handling it? Who takes care now of overflowing log files in e.g. /var/log if there is still logged? /var/log amounts around 400MB of size - this is way huge! I want to get rid of those files - could that be done without any problems if considering to run the system without logging capabilities? I look forward see any responses!
