in Debian bookworm /var/log/syslog is empty

[John Covici <covici@ccs.covici.com>]

Hi.  I am using bookworm with latest updates and /var/log/syslog is
empty, even though rsyslog is runniing.  I am also using logwatch and
not getting at least some responses I should get such as fail2ban.
These may be separate problems, but any help on those would be
appreciated.  I saw a previous thread, but it does not seem to apply
to my situation.
