[Cialug] Python failing

[Patrick Mcgillan]

how interesting. there are no system logs. there is a dmesg log, but
nothing in it past boot of course. the version is known as bbq, picked for
its small foot print. not been worth it and am thinking of switching back
to regular debian.

I wonder if there is a missing package that could be loaded to restore
normal runtime logs. cron works and until you asked i assumed logs were
working, just never went and looked.
