I use pm-utils to suspend/hibernate my system. There are 2 log files that grow with time: /var/log/pm-powersave.log /var/log/pm-suspend.log These files should probably be rotated by logrotate service. Reproducible: Always This can be done to resolve the problem: cat > /etc/logrotate.d/pm-utils << "EOF" /var/log/pm-*.log { compress rotate 4 weekly missingok notifempty } EOF
done in 1.4.1-r5 using pm-utils.logrotate from http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/pm-utils/pm-utils_1.4.1-14.debian.tar.xz
