[Bug 998695] Re: Ureadahead try to read missing log files, then Fail to read compressed log files

[dino99]

hi Gary, (if you are not a bot)

the report you marked have no relationship with this one at all. 
Here ureadahead fail to do its job because it cant find simple log files (see all these : no such file or dir), of course they does not exist as such, as they are all compressed, and ureadahead does not use them.

In other words, either :
- these log files should not be compressed to satisfy ureadahead, or
-  ureadahead need to be updated to be able to use these *.log.1.gz files, or
- be able to use them both.

Hope you understand the real issue now.

   Trace should ignore files in /var/log

  So ureadahead is looking for somefile.log, but inside this upstart
  subdir all the logs are compressed  as somefile.log.1.gz
