The man for logrotate has change, to reflect the change (still don't know why 
through):
Old man:
The  first  few  lines set global options; any errors that occur during log 
file processing are mailed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and logs are compressed after 
they are rotated.

New man:
 If  no  command  line  arguments are given, logrotate will print version and 
copyright information, along with a short usage summary.  If any errors occur 
while rotating logs, logrotate will exit with non-zero status.
