Package: natlog
Version: 1.02.03-1+b1

Natlog's init script fails to start the service. The reason is simply
that in the change from oldstable to stable natlog's binary moved
from /usr/sbin to /usr/bin, but the init script does not reflect that
change.

Simply changing DAEMON=/usr/sbin/$NAME to DAEMON=/usr/bin/$NAME
in /etc/init.d/natlog fixes the issue.
