Dates aren't always a good judge of package quality. In the case of
of this one, there really hasn't been a need to update it, as it just
works. I assume some scripts have undergone changes though...

Only ignore what you encounter and deduce to be not important.
Thats the premise on which this works, known bad _or_ unknown
items are presented to you for you decide what to do.

Its really not that complicated, logwatch is pretty good at what it
does. Post back with more questions if they arise...
