    Question System logs viewer for Xubuntu

    Is there any GUI application to view the system logs for Xubuntu? I like gnome-system-log, but the downside is that it was included into the gnome-utils, and after installing there are other unnecessary applications will apply to the system.

    Weird

    Gnome-system-log breaks/replaces gnome-utils on my system.

    Sorry, I'm forgot to indicate that I use Xubuntu 10.04 and there is no standalone gnome-system-log package into repository.

    Did you find a PPA for it? And added it to your sources list? If so maybe you can get around that by not installing the recommended packages.

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends gnome-system-log

    No it's not working. But I have found the source code of gnome-utils with the same version like in the official lucid repository here: http://ftp.acc.umu.se/pub/GNOME/sources/gnome-utils/2.30/

    I build gnome-system-log from the source code without any additional unused packets. Now it's resolved.

    Deb package is here: http://www.fileswap.com/dl/VWz7pb5vE/
