If it doesnt work is because of the permissions, try changing the
permissions and read the log file again, system log will let you see it.
As Shirish said it should use sudo and that's a known bug upstream:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=126051 ; I'll change the
description of this bug
Hi Pedro. Here's my outputs for the command:
*** Ubuntu 8.0.4.1 Failed to work ***
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -las /var/log/apt
total 96
4 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2008-12-07 20:14 .
4 drwxr-xr-x 15 root root 4096 2008-12-09 08:03 ..
8 -rw--- 1 root root 7508 2008-12-08 19:19 term.log
do you have the right permissions to see the file ? could you ls -las on
the the /var/log/apt/ directory and attach the output to the report?
thanks.
