Package: gidentd
Version: 0.4.5-7.3
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 10.8
Tags: patch
gidentd does not rotate logfiles (neither etch nor sid). However the
policy requires this (and my /var/log fills ...):
Policy 10.8 says:
Log files must be rotated occasionally so that they don't grow
indefinitely; ...
A NMU diff is attached.
While investigating your package I also found following bugs:
At least the stable package does not remove logfiles when being purged
(policy says this should [!= must] happen).
Furthermore the package does not build with MAKEFLAGS=-j2.
