Public bug reported:

logrotate 3.8.7 contains multiple bugs, including:

1) error creating output file [e.g.] /var/log/syslog.1.gz: File exists
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=734688
I encounter this bug on many machines, with many different logfiles, both 
system logs and application logs.

2) segfault with certain configuration/path combos
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=818793
The submitter mentions a specific set of conditions, but they are not limited 
to these alone, as confirmed in additional reports, and in my own testing.
