>Description:
In man vinum, under LOG FILE, the log file is documented as /var/tmp/vinum.history

But the file created is actually /var/tmp/vinum_history
>How-To-Repeat:
Start vinum or run vinum create.  Then check /var/tmp directory.  
You'll see /var/tmp/vinum_history but not /var/tmp/vinum.history
>Fix:
Apply this patch to
