Hi Jeremy,

I've had a look at your changes at long last. Thanks again for taking 
the time to update the package on my behalf!

I like the work you've done, there's just one patch that I've reverted: 
the fix for #805939 (removing the ulogd user at purge). I've replied to 
the bug and marked it wontfix: we can't remove the user if there are log 
files left behind, and it's inappropriate to remove the logs, so we 
shouldn't remove the user in my opinion.

I'm going to do some basic testing of the updated ulogd2 on my own 
systems and I'm planning to upload by the end of the week.

Thanks again,
Chris
