yelp cannot write to scrollkeeper.log

[Daniel Robitaille]

When I start yelp from gnome-terminal, I get this warning:

I/O warning : failed to load external entity "Cannot write to log file: /var/log/scrollkeeper.log : Permission denied"

Looking at /var/log, indeed only root can write to that log file:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 715876 2006-03-25 11:10 /var/log/scrollkeeper.log

I can confirm this on
yelp 2.14.0-0ubuntu

Thanks for your bug. Do you still get that issue? It used to do that on my box too I think and doesn't do it now

The warning about /var/log/scrollkeeper.log is now gone.
