Description Adam Hupp 2000-08-21 15:33:39 UTC 
I've been getting mail from cron that says:

error: /etc/logrotate.conf:6 bad rotation count '4 '

I noticed there was an extra space after the 4, so changing it to '4' (no space afterwards) fixed 
the problem.  This is from the logrotate-3.3.2-1 RPM.

Fixed in the logrotate in pinstripe and rawhide.
