Adam,

thank you for your report and my apologies for the problem. For what
it's worth, I cannot reproduce it in a chroot.  And looking at the diff
to the latest version I don't see anything immediately obvious that
might be causing this.  My suspicion is it has something to do with
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/polipo.git;a=commit;h=520dc059bf1c3b93b243c47c47bde5f4c1e697a3

What version are you upgrading from?
Did you set or unset $NAME somewhere?  Does "env|grep -i name" show
anything? The log file should be /var/log/polipo/polipo.log, not
/var/log/polipo.  What happens if you hardcode the configuration to
LOGFILE=/var/log/polipo/polipo.log in /etc/polipo/config?

Regards

Rolf
