Package: sysv-rc
Version: 2.88dsf-43
Severity: normal
Each day I get the following error message from cron :
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
invoke-rc.d: action rotate is unknown, but proceeding anyway.
My /usr/bin/policy-rc.d does indeed treat the rotate action. However it is not
documeted in the man page.
It seems there is a mismatch between logrotate and invoke-rc.d about this
action.

Running this in Debian unstable, I get:
# invoke-rc.d rsyslog rotate
[ ok ] Closing open files: rsyslogd.
So I consider this issue fixed.
