Description gad.kadosh 2005-04-16 13:58:14 UTC

acpid has a log file, that grows rather quickly. I think it should automatically install a logrotate config file to trim that.

This would put an unnecessary dependency on app-admin/logrotate. You're free to tweak your own logrotate configuration to take the acpid log into consideration.

Comment 2 gad.kadosh 2005-04-24 13:38:11 UTC

There's no need to depend on logrotate, just provide a sample default logrotate config file. Many other packages do the same thing in gentoo without depending on logrotate. (apache, cups, mysql...)

Ok, reopening.

acpid logrotate config file

That's my own acpid config file for logrotate.

Fixed in sys-power/acpid-1.0.4-r2. Thank you for reporting this.
