Hi, please consider reverting changes from bug 621850. While I understand the feature request, the patch (change) is intransparent and therefor wrong: If people want to use bzip2 they should set > compresscmd /usr/bin/bzip2 > uncompresscmd /usr/bin/bunzip2 > compressoptions --best > compressext bz2 in their /etc/logrotate.conf for example. For me, the changes are wrong because `man logrotate` still says "Old versions of log files are compressed with gzip(1) by default." So if you patch the default used compression, you also have to update documentation to be transparent. Also remember that "bzip2" is a global USE flag which is enabled for most profiles. Also, app-arch/bzip2 is a base package. Therefor using a USE flag to control optional bzip2 usage (there is no build dependency on bzip2!) looks wrong for me, too.
Definetely right. =app-admin/logrotate-3.12.3-r1 reverts changes in bug #621850. https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=c9eb5579f753ed8995f9164853fcdfc92333a998 Thanks for the report.
