Disclaimer: this bug has been filed in a semi-automated manner. When emerging the package app-admin/logrotate-3.8.2, the following elog messages are displayed: * If you wish to have logrotate e-mail you updates, please * emerge virtual/mailx and configure logrotate in * /etc/logrotate.conf appropriately * * Additionally, /etc/logrotate.conf may need to be modified * for your particular needs. See man logrotate for details. Such messages should only be displayed when the package is a new install. These situations can be checked in the ebuild as follows: if ! has_version 'app-admin/logrotate'; then See the tracker bug 440214 for more details.
