Proposed patch
This bugzilla has Keywords: Regression. Since no regressions are allowed between releases, it is also being proposed as a blocker for this release. Please resolve ASAP. Should I (or anyone) move this one to 4.7? Moving to 4.7. This is not that serious. This bugzilla has Keywords: Regression. Since no regressions are allowed between releases, it is also being proposed as a blocker for this release. Please resolve ASAP. We would greatly appreciate if this bug gets solved in 4.5 ASAP because our postrotate scripts do a couple of things with each log beeing rotated ( compress, move to another location, etc... ) By now, we rolled back the logrotate binary to version 3.7.1-5 and added logrotate to the skip list in up2date, but this is a little bit painful ... Thanks in advance. Any status on a fix for this bug? (In reply to comment #9) > Any status on a fix for this bug? Patch is ready, will be present in 4.7.
