$ /usr/sbin/cronolog --help 2>&1 | grep prev
   -P NAME,   --prev-symlink=NAME  maintain a symbolic link from NAME to
previous log

but cronolog.1m says instead the long option for -P is :

       --prevlink=NAME
              maintain a symbolic link from NAME to  the  previous  log  file.
              Requires  that  the  --symlink  option is specified, as cronolog
              renames the current link to the name specified for the  previous
              link.

use --prev-symlink instead of --prevlink in the documentation as used by the
code
