Thanks Matt... I did review this earlier and updated before I posted here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1462615
By clean install, what I meant was that I had to do a complete reinstall of my F25 installation (reformat of partition) because I couldn't get the recovery tools on the LiveDVD to function properly. It got to the point where it was just faster to do the re-install than to keep hacking away at the LiveDVD tools. After I re-installed I applied all the current updates. I would expect that it "should" work out of the box. If changes/pre-requisites are required due to the syslog change that should have been incorporated into the logwatch rpm. People shouldn't have to do endless Google searches and hack away to get things to work. If we don't want to adequately support logwatch then we should remove it from the repository and recommend people use something else or whatever. Do we have a process for initiating removal due to inadequate support?
