1) Please post your `emerge --info' output too. 2) Please reproduce the complete output of starting logrotate. dmesg info might help too here.

Could you also post the config files in /etc/logrotate.d/ ? Based on your valgrind output, it's crashing writing to one of those files. Unfortunately, valgrind doesn't tell me which one, so I'm going to have to guess.

It is the empty kdm config file. when i remov it logrotate works fine. I deleted the content because it conflicts with my *.log statement in the main config and there is no way to tell kdm to not create a logrotate file. (I will open a bug for that too. A useflag will be usefull.) Nevertheless the previous version of logrotate handeled it well. It still should not crash.
This is now fixed in 2.7.9-r2 via upstream issue 5.

(I will > open a bug for that too. A useflag will be usefull.) Portage hint for Till and other users who may happen across this: FWIW, while I use the empty-file and CONFIG_PROTECT to tell portage not to install a new version of something sometimes, myself, there's also the INSTALL_MASK (and for FEATURES=buildpkg users, PKG_INSTALL_MASK) setting. Using this, you can tell portage not to install specific files (but not symlinks) or file-groups (I use *.la here, for instance, with an exception in /etc/portage/env for the libtool package itself, since its *.la file is sometimes tested for in various config scripts). So setting something like INSTALL_MASK="/etc/logrotate.d/kdm" should prevent portage from installing that file. Do be aware of the symlink exception, however. See the make.conf (5) manpage for the official explanation of that and other make.conf vars. =:^)
cool thx. I have solved it with TABOOEXT in the logrotate main config, but the other thing is nevertheless useful.
