Hello all
Since some time (maybe since the www-master machine (wolkenstein) was upgraded to bullseye?) we're receiving (at webmas...@debian.org) daily mails with noisy useless output of the "urlcheck" lessoften job:

-----
-------- Mensaje reenviado --------
Asunto: Cron <debwww@wolkenstein> cd /srv/www.debian.org/cron/urlcheck && ./cleanup.logs
Fecha: Thu, 05 Oct 2023 13:05:01 +0000
De: Cron Daemon <r...@wolkenstein.debian.org>
Para: deb...@wolkenstein.debian.org

rm: cannot remove 'logs': Is a directory
gzip: logs is a directory -- ignored
-----

The code producing the output is here:
https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/cron/-/blob/master/urlcheck/cleanup.logs

Which is just 3 lines, so I copy them here:

---
#!/bin/sh

find logs -daystart -mtime +7 -exec rm {} \;
find logs -daystart -mtime +2 -not -name '*.gz' -exec gzip -9 {} \;
---

the "logs" folder is where other cron jobs store files so I guess we should keep it, I'd like just the script to be more silent so we only get mails if there is an actual error.

My bash skills are limited, if anybody can help, MR or patches or ideas are 
welcome.

Kind regards,
