Package: rsyslog Version: 8.2408.0-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch X-Debbugs-Cc: plore...@disroot.org
Hello, the way log rotation is performed in this package makes it very hard for pacakges like orphan-sysvinit-scripts and runit-services to support rsyslogd. (this is also reported in #1031399) the problem is that currently log files are rotated by logrotate but rsyslogd does not receive HUP so it continues to write to rotated files instead of write to new ones. Compared to #1031399 I propose a minimalistic fix; intead of directly call /usr/lib/rsyslog/rsyslog-rotate in /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog, turn /usr/lib/rsyslog/ in a directory where other packages (orphan-sysvinit-scripts, runit-services) can drop their shell snippets. patch is below, in my opinion this would also fix #1031399. I'm also doing a MR on salsa, in case you prefer that way https://salsa.debian.org/debian/rsyslog/-/merge_requests/10 Thanks, Lorenzo >From 5a111b8068ef1fec918710e756d9349b6d0fc707 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lorenzo Puliti <lorenzo.r...@gmail.com> Date: Wed, 21 Aug 2024 21:19:09 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] rsyslog.logrotate: allow shell fragment in postrotate allow shell fragments in logrotate's postrotate section so that pacakges like orphan-sysvinit-scripts and runit-services can simlpy drop their snippets in /usr/lib/rsyslog --- debian/rsyslog.logrotate | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/debian/rsyslog.logrotate b/debian/rsyslog.logrotate index b145324f..d6289947 100644 --- a/debian/rsyslog.logrotate +++ b/debian/rsyslog.logrotate @@ -13,6 +13,6 @@ delaycompress sharedscripts postrotate - /usr/lib/rsyslog/rsyslog-rotate + for f in /usr/lib/rsyslog/*; do "$f" ; done endscript } -- 2.45.2 -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.8.12-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: runit (via /run/runit.stopit) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages rsyslog depends on: ii libc6 2.39-7 ii libestr0 0.1.11-1+b1 ii libfastjson4 1.2304.0-1+b1 ii liblognorm5 2.0.6-4+b1 ii libsystemd0 256.5-1 ii libuuid1 2.40.2-7 ii libzstd1 1.5.6+dfsg-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.3.dfsg+really1.3.1-1 Versions of packages rsyslog recommends: ii logrotate 3.22.0-1 Versions of packages rsyslog suggests: pn rsyslog-doc <none> pn rsyslog-gssapi <none> pn rsyslog-mongodb <none> pn rsyslog-mysql | rsyslog-pgsql <none> pn rsyslog-openssl | rsyslog-gnutls <none> pn rsyslog-relp <none> -- Configuration Files: /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog'
