Package: logrotate
Version: 3.7-5
Severity: wishlist
I don't understand why there is a need to restart the server in a postrotate
using apache2 as an example.
Could you or rather docs explain this better? :)
I noticed this on RH machine for example:
postrotate
/bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/httpd.pid 2>/dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true
Best wishes,
