#999383 — Bug#953684: dpkg doesn't log to /var/log/dpkg.log anymore

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] — view raw

Package: dpkg
Version: 1.20.0+rsc
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Since installing dpkg 1.20 nothing is logged to /var/log/dpkg.log anymore. The
reason is that the logfile is opened read-only,
hence all writes fail (undetected).

Patch attached.

Cheers, Roderich
