Description of problem:

boot.log is rotated by a /etc/logrotate.d/bootlog (owned by plymouth package). It rotates daily even if empty. The default behaviour should be to rotate notifempty, or only on boot.
NOTE: This was corrected in RHEL6 via https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=683537 but has regressed in RHEL7


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:

below the file from RHEL 7.4
++
[root@rhel7u4-2 ~]# cat /etc/logrotate.d/bootlog 
/var/log/boot.log
{
    missingok
    daily
    copytruncate
    rotate 7
}
++

Actual results:
/var/log/boot.log rotated due to /etc/logrotate.d/bootlog which is present as part of installation

Expected results:

/var/log/boot.log should not be rotated daily
