What exactly fires logrotate (and other scheduled events like
"logwatch", which ends up in root's inbox)?
look at /etc/cron.daily/logrotate and /etc/cron.daily/0logwatch.
those scripts (and the others in /etc/cron.*ly) are invoked by the
following code in /etc/crontab:
# run-parts
01 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.hourly
02 4 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.daily
22 4 * * 0 root run-parts /etc/cron.weekly
42 4 1 * * root run-parts /etc/cron.monthly
