I concur. pkg info provides details of *currently installed* packages, 
whereas the information in syslog yields a *history*.

This arrangement seems eminently reasonable to me.

It all seems a bit of a storm in a teacup anyway, given that the logging 
can be directed to another file or turned off altogether, depending on 
requirements.

My vote: Maintainers, thanks for your efforts and please keep it as it is.
