Well, this depends on your installation and distribution, which is
decided by how Postgres is packaged and deployed on Linux Mint. The
logs are found depending on the configuration of postgresql.conf. If
you are using stderr, or csvlog as log_destination, you would find the
new function called pg_current_logfile() interesting to know what is
the current log file in use. If log_directory is defined as an
absolute path you could also directly getting to it. But this really
depends on Mint, and this is an unknown territory for me.
