* Remove part of the cron patch, it was redundant.
* Workaround to preserve language environment for fortunes closes: #340903,
  thanks to Benoit Dejean <email address hidden> for the report.
* Openvpn logs to daemon, the server uses ovpn-[^\s]* as name. (The simpler
  form ovpn-\S* does not work, 'cause logwatch lowercases all conf options.)
  closes: #341863, thanks to David Anselmi <email address hidden> for the
  report.
* logfiles/daemon.conf didn't contain the calls to the appropriate logfile
  scripts. closes: #343331, thanks to Arne Roolfs <email address hidden> for the

  Urgency medium because non-working cron-reporting should go away from
  testing as fast as possible.

* Fix cron-script /usr/bin -> /usr/sbin. (closes: #253859, thanks to
  Ian MacDonald). Forgot to list that change in previous changelog.

  in sshd-reporting. (thanks to Manabu Matsui, closes: #254968)
* Don't report pam_unix in SSHD.
* Fix a pam_unix -line for su.
* Don't report pam_limits in secure.
