Package: logrotate
Version: 3.7.8-6
Severity: normal
Tags: squeeze

Dear all,

according to the logrotate man page the script is executed after
compression: "The sharedscripts means that the postrotate script will
only be run once (after the old logs have been com‐ pressed) [...]".
This was the case with lenny, but is not with squeeze. As a result at
the time of the script execution I see log.1 instead of log.1.gz.

Please fix the man page or revert the change of order.

Best regards,
Carsten Otto
