Package: logcheck
Version: 1.3.4
Severity: normal
I am running debian/testing and just upgraded to logcheck 1.3.4 and it
started reporting the error:
mkdir: cannot create directory `/var/lock/logcheck': Permission denied
I created the directory and chown'd it to logcheck and it seems fine now.
Looking at the changelog, I see something was purposefully changed, so I
imagine I wasn't supposed to be getting this error.

This is not a bug in logcheck, but your /var/lock directory
permissions seem screwed up.
chmod 1777 /var/lock
should fix that.
