eBuild for version 3.6.10 incl. patches

Description Dennis Freise 2003-12-10 10:21:06 UTC
I've made an ebuild for the logrotate-version SuSE uses on their distro (8.2).
However, it does not (yet) provide SElinux-patches or alike :(
But the SuSE-version gives MAXAGE and DATEEXT options, that I find very
usefull...

ebuild

This execellent patch is also now available for logrotate 3.6.10 at
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/ro/logrotate

DATEEXT and MAXAGE are very good feature to have IMO.

More information on the SuSE patch at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=108775

I looks the selinux patch (logrotate-3.6.5-selinux.diff.bz2) is no longer needed for logrotate-3.6.10 because it already includes it. But I can't test this -- no selinux here.

Thanks for the ebuild, works fine.
Comment 6 Stefan Briesenick (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-11-18 14:17:22 UTC
well, any chance to get this into portage?
Comment 7 Ole Tange 2004-12-06 05:31:29 UTC
If DATEEXT works, then Bug 71381 will be solved, too.
Comment 8 Daniel Gryniewicz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-05-24 14:10:12 UTC
3.7.1 now includes all relevent patches from the Suse version.
