What's about adding a feature to use the USE flag "logrotate" in the ntp ebuild in the same mannse as it's used eg in the acpid - ebuilds ? The logrotate def file could have the same contents as this : n22 /usr/portage/net-misc/ntp # cat /etc/logrotate.d/snort /var/log/snort/alert { daily rotate 7 nocompress }
added to cvs
