Public bug reported:
Cannot collect rotated syslog.1 or syslog.2.gz by sosreport. If syslog
is rotated daily, syslog only contains logs in less than 24 hours.
I expect sosreport collects syslog and syslog.1 to see logs at least for
24 hours. Or it would be nice if sosreport has options to switch to
collect old logs or not.
