Hi Ian,

Could possibly be the result of having a specific versioned package
like "mysql-server-5.0" installed rather than the generic
"mysql-server"?

Way back in Debian lenny syslogd replaced by rsyslog, no
inetutils-syslogd required, most users should notice no difference:
https://www.debian.org/releases/lenny/i386/release-notes/ch-whats-new#system-changes
Those upgrading the same install from etch through lenny, squeeze
and to wheezy could possibly have never switched to rsyslog and may
have been caught by this:
https://wiki.debian.org/NewInWheezy#Upgrade_issues
"rsyslog: Upgrades from systems that did not already have
rsyslog installed may not have any syslog daemon running after
the upgrade. After your upgrade, check whether rsyslog is
installed, and install it if necessary."
Cheers,
Andy
