Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: atop
By default the atop init script sets up a binary log at
/var/log/atop.log. I have found this frustrating when using various
tools such as tail, xtail, and grep in which I'd like to search human
readable logs. Since atop.log is a binary file I suggest it either uses
a different name or a different location. I've updated all my init
scripts to put it in /var/lib/misc. If it were renamed from .log but
kept in /var/log it would also need a logrotate.d file so I found that
moving it was the easier way to go.
** Affects: atop (Ubuntu)
