Hello, 

I just got mail from my cron daemon ;)

apparently the program "savelog" which gets called from /etc/cron.daily/syslog.cron has been moved from /usr/sbin to /sbin in the new debianutils, causing the cron script to fail.

This script belongs to app-admin/sysklogd-1.4.1-r11

 done


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. wait for daily cron to run
2. read roots mail

didnt move it on purpose, we should fix it in debianutils ...

messed up the mix of `into`'s and `dosbin`'s ... fixed now in 2.13.1-r1
