Bug#66535: s/linux-kernel-log-daemon/kernel-log-daemon/g



[ I sent this message to 66535-done@bugs.debian.org before, but
there was no reaction ... ]

Its OK how it is now. Virtual-packages-list.txt doesn't need to
be changed.

We have a /dev/klog, which wil be read by syslogd directly. Despite what I
said, the Hurd will not have a seperate kernel logger. We use syslogd in
GNU inetutils.

So, you can talk about linux-kernel-log-daemon, if you mean a specific linux
kernel logger which can make use of the System map files.

I am not up to date to the linux side of the discussion, but the Hurd side
is very easy: we only have a system logger daemon, which also does kernel
logging. :)

Thanks,
Marcus
