I've just noticed that between 050526 & 050531 compression in  /var/log
changed from  .bz2  to  .gz  & the  .bz2  files are just sitting there.
The only emerge I did during that interval which might have affected this
is Debianutils , which is required for Sysklogd , my logger.
Since Bzip2 does a tighter compression than Gzip , the change seems odd.

Does anyone have any insights into this change ?
Any reasons to use a different logger rather than Sysklogd ?
