Description: logwatch fails to parse new-style rsyslog log entries. This can be resolved by making rsyslog spit out old-style messages, or to patch logwatch to support the new messages.

Old style
May 28 14:14:46 HOSTNAME ...

New style:
2008-05-28T14:14:46.316223-04:00 HOSTNAME ...

Red-hat bugzilla entry: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=583607
The following patch enables logwatch to parse the new-style messages (tested it myself): https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=407611&action=diff

Additional info:
