BUG: scrollkeeper can't be activated because of scrollkeeper.log

[vinc17@…]

The scrollkeeper build process creates a file /opt/local/var/log/scrollkeeper.log because scrollkeeper-rebuilddb is run. It contains here:

Oct 09 01:20:58 scrollkeeper-rebuilddb: Rebuilding ScrollKeeper database...
Oct 09 01:20:58 scrollkeeper-rebuilddb: Done rebuilding ScrollKeeper database.

But this prevents scrollkeeper from being activated since this log file is in destroot; it contains here:

Oct 09 01:20:58 Installing ScrollKeeper 0.3.14...

changeset:20908 should address this bug. Please test that it works.

scrollkeeper can now be activated. However I get:

[...]

It no longer works:

Command output: touch: /opt/local/var/log/scrollkeeper.log: No such file or directory

The problem is that before the touch, the ${prefix}/var/log directory should be created. BTW, shouldn't the log files all be in /var/log?

Fix should be in changeset:20999

Closing since no problems have been reported since changeset:20999
