Package: logrotate
Version: 3.8.3-3
Severity: normal

The last Anacron output shows:

[...]
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:

forced

But I don't see any problem with the clock on my machine.

Note that the timezone was changed from Europe/Paris to US/Central
earlier this day. This may be related. But I'd expect logrotate to
obviously consider UTC time when comparing dates; if it does, this
cannot explain the above errors.
