Package: logrotate
Version: 3.7.8-6

short: logrotate complains about duplicate entries for
/var/log/{wtmp,btmp} in /etc/logrotate.d .

long: I have to keep the wtmp and btmp logfiles on all
servers for much longer then just the default (1 month).
For an easy configuration and to avoid a conflict about
/etc/logrotate.conf on the next package upgrade I rolled
out a local /etc/logrotate.d/wtmp.conf on each server:

/var/log/wtmp {
    missingok
    create 0664 root utmp
    yearly
    rotate 100
}

/var/log/btmp {
    missingok
    create 0660 root utmp
    yearly
    rotate 100
}

Since then logrotate complains about the redefined entries
for /var/log/{wtmp,btmp} on each run :-(.

How am I supposed to override the package default
configuration without error messages about duplicate
config settings?

Harri
