Brian, I have read your Nuonce forum post on this subject at
http://www.nuonce.net/support/viewthread.php?tid=405
It appears you originally thought AWStats and Logrotate would fail, and then
you updated the post to say AWStats does not fail and included a fix for
Logrotate. In the next post, you state "Package Install fails if you choose
to do this!"
Does this mean all PKG installs will fail in the future?
