Package: logrotate
Version: 3.7.1-5
Severity: normal

When /var/lib/logrotate/status has files with date 1904-1-1 (e.g.
/var/log/wtmp), these files are no longer rotated. I don't even
get any error message.

Note: the 1904-1-1 is due to the fact that on the PowerBook G4,
when the battery is empty, the date is reset to 1904-01-01.
