From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2a) Gecko/20020913 Description of problem: mgetty 1.1.28-3 logrotate config is filling /var/log/ with mgetty.log.ttyS?.x.x.x.x... files where x is any single digit number 0-9. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Everytime logrotate is run. 2. 3. Additional info: Maybe mgetty's log file naming convention should be changed from mgetty.log.ttyS? to mgetty.ttyS?.log to allow the use of * in /etc/logrotate.d/mgetty. It simply does not work with * as last component of what to rotate. Other possible solution would be to change logrotate so it would not touch anything that ends with number. For now fixed with removing * from mgetty's logrotate config and giving exact paths to log-files.
It can be fixed just changing /var/log/mgetty.log.tty* for /var/log/mgetty.log.ttyS? in /etc/logrotate.d/mgetty
