Hi,
I just noticed that some of my log directories had many more log files in
them than the value of the 'n' parameter in the corresponding svlogd config.
A great deal of these were unprocessed .u files. Unfortunately, I'm not sure
if there were also more .s files than configured, but I set up an experiment
if you like.
If the behaviour of not deleting .u files during log rotation is
intentional, svlogd(8) should probably point it out. It currently does not.
I expected .u and .s files to be treated the same way for the purposes of
log rotation (as is the case with multilog).
