./sysutils/logrot, Rotate log files in a safe and configurable manner

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.7, Package name: logrot-1.7, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

logrot rotates log files in a safe (almost atomic) manner.
The name of the rotated file and its destination directory
are configurable. Signals may be sent to processes determined
from a pid file, or arbitrary commands may be executed upon
rotation. Optional pre-processing, compression, and post-
processing is supported.

	95748686a5ad8144232f4d4abc9bf052721a196f [calculated]

Problems found locating distfiles:
	Package dc-tools: missing distfile dc-tools/abs0-dc-burn-netbsd-1.5-0-gae55ec9
	Package ipw-firmware: missing distfile ipw2100-fw-1.2.tgz
	Package iwi-firmware: missing distfile ipw2200-fw-2.3.tgz
	Package nvnet: missing distfile nvnet-netbsd-src-20050620.tgz

the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden).  All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.

Log message:
Update to logrot 1.7.
Notable changes:
	* Add --with-pidfile to allow override the path to syslogd's pidfile.
	* Update my email address.
	* Remove advertising clause from my license.

Use --with-pidfile when building on NetBSD so that chroot/sandbox
builds default to the correct path for syslogd.pid.
