We use logarithmic {ell}-class groups to take a new view on Greenbergs conjecture about Iwasawa {ell}-invariants of a totally real number field K. By the way we recall and complete some classical results. Under Leopoldts conjecture, we prove that Greenbergs conjecture holds if and only if the logarithmic classes of K principalize in the cyclotomic Z{ell}-extensions of K. As an illustration of our approach, in the special case where the prime {ell} splits completely in K, we prove that the sufficient condition introduced by Gras just asserts the triviality of the logarithmic class group of K.Last, in the abelian case, we provide an explicit description of the circular class groups in connexion with the so-called weak conjecture.
