The appropriate action, IMO, would be to Replace: logcheck-database; we
can then remove that file at our leisure.  (I for one am using l-d from
backports.org on my servers, so I'd favor waiting until after lenny's
release.)

Yes, that makes very good sense. I've just added the missing rule from
1.2.63 logcheck-database to lpr package.

Does this mean the bug should be reassigned to logcheck-database?

 Yes, definitely. The fix is just to remove the conffile from lpr. No
 
 Seems to me like these two files should at least be merged, as they have
 different rules.

Since logcheck ships lots and lots of files, it may be best for lpr to
either rename the file to something like, like lpr.package, or just drop
the file altogether. I'll take a look at the rules today and get this done..

 As for which package should inherit from the other, I'm a strong
 proponent of having individual packages ship their own rules, but it's
 really up to you.

Ideally, logcheck shipping its files named package.logcheck or
package.lc or similar would have been more compatible with packages
providing their own rules. But I guess that can't really be done now..

PS. Sorry, I guess I've forgotten about this bug :)

The rules should just be merged into one file and distributed as
part of the lpr package.

logcheck-database exists as a bag for rules that are not in the
packages. If a package provides its own rule files, the
logcheck-database must not.
