Logwatch question on Fedora 15

On earlier Fedora releases if I typed "logwatch --logfile maillog" then
logwatch would only look at the log file group "maillog."  I just
updated to F15 over the weekend and now the switch doesn't seem to work.
On F15 I get a full logwatch output if I type the above command.  Can
someone check this and reply if they're also seeing this?  I googled
around and didn't find anything.  From the man page it still looks like
the "--logfile" option should behave as it has in the past.


$ uname -a

Thanks,
