I'm a user of debian unstable on the desktop.
I'm glad to see this, I was slightly confused that one day i saw this
package removed, checked bug reports and didn't find anything reasonable
about the 'why'.
The reason why I tried this one at all was that gentoo describes it as
fastest. Reason I kept it was that I liked the default log file naming
scheme of metalog better than default syslog style.
I guess that behaviour could be replicated with syslog(-ng), but I don't
really want to bother doing that.

Cheers,
