Yeah, but... I think at some level we have to make some documented assumptions about log rotation and go with that. As long as there's a comment somewhere in the inn2 configuration file telling people what to do if they want to change it, I think this is okay. > Would a new "rotate=<program>" option to news.daily be usable for Debian? > We could then skip the rotation part of news.daily/scanlogs and run > instead <program>. > rotate="logrotate inn2" may be used for Debian, with a proper > /etc/logrotate.d/inn2 configuration file. But we'd need to convince logrotate to not also run the inn2 configuration when it runs normally from cron.daily. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
