Description Jonathan Kamens 2009-08-03 00:07:46 UTC
The default configuration for dansguardian is to log in /var/log/dansguardian, which isn't created by the RPM.

Also, the default configuration runs as nobody.nobody, which means that /var/log/dansguardian, even if it existed, would have to be owned by user or group nobody.  Generally speaking, the whole point of the user and group nobody is that they shouldn't have write access to anything.  So I suspect that a user and group should be created for dansguardian in its %post script and that user and group should own /var/log/dansguardian.
