Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-utils

After upgrading Ubuntu 9.04 32 bit to 9.10 32 bit the log file viewer
exhibits an error in looking for log files that have been renamed.

Upon running Log File Viewer, the application becomes unresponsive for several 
minutes while displaying the error message:
/var/log/syslog.0: Error stating file '/var/log/syslog.0': No such file or 
directory
/var/log/auth.log.0: Error stating file '/var/log/auth.log.0': No such file or 
directory

After a few minutes, the application starts to respond and displays the
logs in the messages area.

Upon checking the /var/log directory, syslog.0 and auth.log.0 do not
exist.  They have been replaced by syslog and auth.log
