Changelog

logrotate (3.8.7-1ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=medium

  * Merge from Debian unstable, remaining changes:

    - debian/cron.daily: Clean non-existent log files from logrotate status
      file.
    - debian/logrotate.conf: use group 'syslog' by default when rotating logs.

logrotate (3.8.7-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New patch:
    - man-su-explanation-729315.patch: Explain how "su" may conflict with
      "create". (Closes: #729315)
  * New upstream release
    - Fix to forcing size-based rotations. (Closes: #714910)
  * Bump standards version to 3.9.5. (No changes needed.)

logrotate: Log rotation utility

 The logrotate utility is designed to simplify the administration of
 log files on a system which generates a lot of log files. Logrotate
 allows for the automatic rotation compression, removal and mailing of
 log files. Logrotate can be set to handle a log file daily, weekly,
 monthly or when the log file gets to a certain size. Normally, logrotate
 runs as a daily cron job.
