--- Begin Message ---Package: logrotate Version: 3.8.1-4 Severity: normal If you have a file in /etc/logrotate.d/ with incorrect permissions according to logrotate (e.g. root root 0664) then logrotate will silently ignore the file unless run with -v. That means that errors are not reported to administrators at all. Also I'm not sure why permissions of /etc/logrotate.d/ files are important at all. Regards, Oskar
