Description Bill Pemberton 2023-04-23 13:08:05 UTC 
The file /etc/logrotate/certbot is essentially a notes file and in any way a valid logrotate config file.  As a result it's presence causes logrotate to fail.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.install certbot
2.wait for logrotate run, or run it manually with systemctl start logrotate.service 
3.run systemctl status logrotate.service to see the errors resulting.
Actual Results:  
Logrotate fails to run with an error

Expected Results:  
Logrotate runs normally.

The file /etc/logrotate.d/cerbot should be all commented out using # or otherwise not be installed.
