Hmm, I don't understand this, so I cannot say how serious it could be.
My question is: Should I stick with 2.0.59 or upgrade with a patched
2.0.61/2.2.6?
This is a production server and the change log lists quite a few
security fixes for the new versions.
As long as all that could be broken is logging, I think I would like to
upgrade or could the change effect other parts as well (security)?
