IMO gnunet should not re-implement operating system tasks, for several reasons: - logging should be done using the platforms mechanisms to ease the users' live - the OS logging subsystem should be able to take care of rotation, disk exhaustion, what ever, - implementing all of log-subsystem features again is a huge effort, waste of (wo)men-power and time On 5/1/19 7:45 AM, IC Rainbow wrote: > Maybe log in ~/.local/share/gnunet by default? IMHO this is a bad place, as barely nobody would look for logs here, esp. not in "share". For Linux it might be worth having a look at how to manage services under the user's control with a per-user systemd instance [2], including proper logging.
