I'm not sure! Did you check the documentation (info rottlog). Or if it's
not covered there,  you could check the source of rottlog, which is a
"simple" shell script.

There's also a mailing list for bugs at
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-rottlog, and you can email a new
bug at bug-rottlog at gnu dot org.

I'll close this on Guix side since the question is a question for
rottlog (I think) and rottlog is no longer used out of the box on Guix
System (it's been replaced by Shepherd).
