Description Jarno Huuskonen 2001-02-01 11:47:54 UTC

If logrotate.conf has a line like 'rotate 5 ' (without the ' chars)
logrotate complains that '5 ' is bad rotation count.

The problem seems to be in config.c use of strtoul to parse the value.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. add space after rotate 'number' to logrotate.conf
2. try to run logrotate
3.

This is fixed in the latest logrotate
