[Bug 906735] Re: package installation should create /var/log/puppet

[Kenyon Ralph]

So maybe the fix is to not remove /var/log/puppet upon package removal.
/var/log/puppet could still be removed if empty upon package purge.

** Summary changed:

- package installation should create /var/log/puppet
+ logrotate can't find /var/log/puppet if package was removed and that directory was empty

** Description changed:

- The puppet package should create /var/log/puppet. Otherwise, we get this
- from cron due to /etc/logrotate.d/puppet:
