Are you in that much of a hurry to get your logwatch reports?

I'd prefer to have a more accurate program than knowingly produce an
incomplete program just because it only affects a small number of
people.

At the least, they should parse the compresscmd to see if it matches
'bzip2', which defaults to producing bz2 extensions.

Thanks,
Alex
