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.
Comment 1 Stefan Dirsch 2007-06-04 10:44:23 UTC 
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.
Comment 2 Stefan Dirsch 2007-06-04 12:41:29 UTC 
According to my previous comment closing as WONTFIX.
