Sysadmin Updating logwatch to latest

Any chance to update logwatch to newest 7.4.3 version?

we have installed older version by default, how to merge all settings with new one during/after upgrade?

P.S. I posted here because there is no logwatch dedicated thread

It should be somethin like this

Code:

Go to a temp install or source directory on your server.
# cd /usr/local/src
Get the source for logwatch
# wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/logwatch/logwatch-7.4.3/logwatch-7.4.3.tar.gz?r=&ts=1476136095&use_mirror=hean
Extract the files
# tar xvfz logwatch-7.4.3.tar.gz
Make the install script executable
# cd logwatch-7.4.3
# chmod a+x install_logwatch.sh
Run the script & enter the correct paths for logwatch:
# ./install_logwatch.sh
...Logwatch Basedir [/usr/share/logwatch]  : /etc/log.d
...Logwatch ConfigDir [/etc/logwatch] : /etc/log.d
...temp files [/var/cache/logwatch] : <enter>
...perl [/usr/bin/perl] : <enter>
...manpage [/usr/share/man] : <enter>

 

I will stay too than

 

I do not have test server, never have. Do not ask me why

 

That will get me more confused than one server.
I have only one server with live forum and everything is tested/installed/reinstalled/uninstalled on this poor server
