Hi,

I found a problem on LTP when I execute ./runltp.
After execute ./runltp, all log files such as /var/log/messages*
disappeared, 
and there is only new log files that were created after the test...

This seems a problem that occurs after the "logrotate01" test. 
I found that the past log files disappeared by forcing a rotate (logrotate
-fv $LTPTMP/tst_logrotate.conf).

Besides, "logrotate"'s shell script
./testcases/commands/logrotate/logrotate_tests.sh creats 
logrotate configuration file ($LTPTMP/tst_logrotate.conf) for the test, and
this config file includes 
/etc/logrotate.d as follows:
[ ./testcases/commands/logrotate/logrotate_tests.sh line:156~ ]
----------
# create config file.
        cat >$LTPTMP/tst_logrotate.conf <<-EOF
        #****** Begin Config file *******
        # create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones
        create

        # compress the log files
        compress

        # RPM packages drop log rotation information into this directory
        include /etc/logrotate.d

        /var/log/tst_logfile {
                rotate 5
                weekly
        }
        #****** End Config file *******
        EOF
----------

By this, not only a log file for the test (/var/log/tst_logfile), but also
30 fies in my system 
such as /var/log/messages* become "logrotate" command target.
Therefore, only a log file for this test must be made a target of the forced
execution of "logrotate".

To resolve this problem, we have to change this not to include
/etc/logrotate.d, I think.
