zypper-log - Zypper logfile reader

       Dominik Heidler dheidler@suse.de

zypper-log can read zypper’s logfiles. It can also handle rotated logfiles, and will open plain, xz, gz
       and bz2-compressed files.

       By default /var/log/zypper.log will be read and a list of all zypper invocations is shown:

           $ zypper-log
           Reading /var/log/zypper.log ............... DONE

           TIME              PID    VER      CMD

           2013-10-15 15:00  22479  1.11.14  /usr/bin/zypper lr -s

       When you provide a pid, you will get the complete log for the corresponding zypper run.

/var/log/zypper.logzypper default logfile.

       /var/log/YaST2/y2log
           As YAST uses a similar logfile format, you should be able to scan the YAST logfiles as well, using
           the -l switch.
