Description Michal Jaegermann 2003-11-23 01:38:04 UTC 
Description of problem:

acpid writes a log file /var/log/acpid but something corresponding
in /etc/logrotate.d/ is not there.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
acpid-1.0.2-5
Comment 1 Michal Jaegermann 2003-11-23 01:54:23 UTC 
A short experiment shows that acpid keeps a handle to an open log
file. Hence something like that

/var/log/acpid {
    missingok
    notifempty
    size=64k
    postrotate
        /etc/init.d/acpid condrestart >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
    endscript
}

for /etc/logrotate.d/acpid should do.

Thanks, fixed in acpid-1.0.3-2, which should soon be in rawhide.
