Interesting. On my system `/var/log/dmesg' is 640, root:adm, which is quite restrictive. If I run `/etc/init.d/bootlogs' again, it stays so. But if I remove `/var/log/dmesg' and re-run `/etc/init.d/bootlogs', `/var/log/dmesg' becomes 644. I believe adjustment to `/etc/init.d/bootlogs' to check `kernel.dmesg_restrict' is needed. By the way, any ideas how could I have 640 `/var/log/dmesg' in first place?
