Public bug reported:
I am using logwatch 7.3.6.cvs20090906-1ubuntu4 on oneiric with postfix
2.8.3-1.
Logwatch is reporting quite a few errors while parsing postfix log
entries. Here is a complete list from my latest logwatch report:

****** Summary
*************************************************************************************
[rest of the logwatch log here]
Line 254 of /usr/share/logwatch/scripts/services/postfix is located in a sub
called commify:
251 # Inserts commas in numbers for easier readability
252 #
253 sub commify ($) {
254 my $text = reverse $_[0];
255 $text =~ s/(\d\d\d)(?=\d)(?!\d*\.)/$1,/g;
256 return scalar reverse $text;
257 }
I know nothing about perl so I do not have the slightest idea of what is
wrong and how to fix...
