Version: 1.2-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Icecream is writing its log files directly to /var/log, even though it
is running as the icecc user which has no permission to write to
/var/log. This problem has already been reported in Ubuntu here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/icecc/+bug/1671926
I've attached a patch to fix it. As suggested in the Ubuntu bug, I have
added a HUP signal when the logs are rotated. I have also added
/etc/default files to allow easily turning up the log level.
