/var/log/rc.log is growing and growing. Maybe rotating it is a good idea.

Danile, you might bring this directly to the upstram maintainer at http://roy.marples.name/projects/openrc
Maybe Roy is interested in including this file into the openrc source package.

Reassigning to base-system, CCing upstream maintainer.

Any news on this? I can add it myself if nobody objects.
Comment 5 Roy Marples 2009-09-28 20:54:20 UTC 
I have no plans on adding this to OpenRC directly. There's quite a few log managers, and each requires their own config which is outside the scope of OpenRC itself.

I have no issue with it being added to the ebuild though.

Fixed in sys-apps/openrc-0.4.3-r4.
