logcheck cron job not run with logcheck uid

[Forest Bond]

/etc/cron.d/logcheck is as follows:
-------------------------------------------
# /etc/cron.d/logcheck: crontab entries for the logcheck package

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
MAILTO=root

@reboot logcheck if [ -x /usr/sbin/logcheck ]; then nice -n10 /usr/sbin/logcheck -R; fi
2 * * * * logcheck if [ -x /usr/sbin/logcheck ]; then nice -n10 /usr/sbin/logcheck; fi

# EOF
-------------------------------------------

It should be like this, I believe:

-------------------------------------------
# /etc/cron.d/logcheck: crontab entries for the logcheck package

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
MAILTO=root

#@reboot logcheck if [ -x /usr/sbin/logcheck ]; then nice -n10 /usr/sbin/logcheck -R; fi
@reboot logcheck if [ -x /usr/sbin/logcheck ]; then nice -n10 /bin/su -s /bin/bash -c "/usr/sbin/logcheck -R"; fi
#2 * * * * logcheck if [ -x /usr/sbin/logcheck ]; then nice -n10 /usr/sbin/logcheck; fi
#2 * * * * logcheck if [ -x /usr/sbin/logcheck ]; then nice -n10 /bin/su -s /bin/bash -c "/usr/sbin/logcheck; fi

# EOF
-------------------------------------------

Otherwise, logcheck refuses to run (as root).

or not really like that (sorry, didn't look too closely at what I was copying)...but su logcheck should prefix the commands, anyway.

forget it. sorry, forgot about the user field in the cron file. please reject this bug.
