Package: squid
Version: 3.5.23-3
Severity: normal

squid Depends: logrotate

But on modern systems, logrotate is unnecessary because logs are
handled (and rotated) by a centralized logging daemon.  a clean squid
installation shouldn't need to know or do anything with log rotation
-- it just needs to know how to hand its logs over to syslog and
should let the daemon deal with it.

It would be great to be able to have a machine with squid, but without
logrotate installed.

Thanks for maintaining squid in debian!
