Description Tim Waugh 2006-11-10 17:21:20 UTC 
Description of problem:
/etc/logrotate.d/cups should reload, not restart, cups after rotating the logs.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cups-1.2.5-1.fc5.4

How reproducible:
100%
Comment 1 Tim Waugh 2007-01-12 16:44:37 UTC 
Hmm, actually even reload isn't safe.  Best not to poke cupsd at all in the
logrotate script.
Comment 2 Fedora Update System 2007-01-22 17:05:24 UTC 
Fixed in update: cups-1.2.7-1.7.fc6
Comment 3 Tim Waugh 2007-03-06 16:50:21 UTC 
CUPS ought to re-open its log files if logrotate has rotated them, otherwise we
end up continuing to write to error_log.1 etc.
Comment 4 Tim Waugh 2007-04-10 11:53:35 UTC 
Fixed in update: cups-1.2.10-3.fc6.
