Package: unattended-upgrades Version: 0.82.8 Severity: normal By default, unattended-upgrades seems to log the following to /var/log/unattended-upgrades/:
unattended-upgrades-shutdown.log (plus gzipped older logs as *.[1-7].gz) unattended-upgrades.log (plus gzipped older logged as *.[1-7].gz) unattended-upgrades-dpkg_(date).log (plus gzipped copies as *.1.gz) While the number of older files kept as unattended-upgrades.log.[1-7].gz and unattended-upgrades-shutdown.log.[1-7].gz remains reasonable, the sheer quantity of dated log files quickly reaches a ridiculous amount. Additionally, keeping gzipped copies of each dated log files seems excessive. As such, I am wondering whether there are configuration options to perform the following: 1) Output one's choice of clear/gzipped/both logs. 2) Delete dated logs older than NN months back. If there are, the options listed in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades configuration file don't make any mention of this. Could you please document how this can be configured?
