Bug Description
Binary package hint: syslog-ng
Everyone seems to treat the removal of Ubuntu metapackages a bit nonchalantly, but I can't in my present circumstances.
Ubuntu-minimal should depend on some virtual package, such as syslogd or system-log-daemon.
Sysklogd, which is an explicit dependency in ubuntu-minimal, provides "syslogd, system-log-daemon" and replaces "syslogd." syslog-ng provides "system-log-daemon, linux-kernel-
Ubuntu-minimal should probably depend on "sysklogd | system-log-daemon (or even syslogd)".
In my work environment, I need ubuntu-minimal itself and syslog-ng. There is no current way of having them cohabitate.
