Description Lars Vogdt 2007-06-04 10:32:09 UTC

The logfiles 
- Xorg.0.log
- Xorg.0.log.old
- Xorg.99.log
- Xorg.99.log.old
should be owned by the package xorg-x11-server as the scripts of this package create them.

Using something like
%ghost %config(noreplace) /var/log/Xorg.0.log
in the %files list should aviod verify-errors from RPM or security scanners.

I'm not sure how useful this is. The logfile is created by the Xserver itself and the logfile depends on the DISPLAY number provided by the Xserver

--> Xorg.$DISPLAY.log{.old,}

Usually xdm/kdm/gdm use DISPLAY=0, sax2 for testing DISPLAY=99, Xgl DISPLAY=93. If it's really an important issue the ghosts should be added
to xdm/kdm/gdm, sax2 and Xgl IMHO. Honestly I tend to resolve the bugreport 
as WONTFIX.

According to my previous comment closing as WONTFIX.
