Not a problem--nuke em. And, I always change my /etc/logrotate.conf
so that the rotation is "rotate 1" instead of "rotate 4" and change all
references from "monthly" to "weekly"
In a home or small office setup I see no need for all these logs, and if
they are on a small /var partition they can fill it and choke the system
in a really short time.
