[ic] BUG : in log rotate

[Murray Gibbins]

Spec
----

interchange-4.6.1-3.rh7
Rh7.0
2.2.18
logrotate-3.5.2-1



Synopsis
--------

RPM install adds to /etc/logrotate.d file "interchange" containing

/var/log/interchange/* {
        rotate 4
        weekly
        compress
}

this causes the directory "/var/log/interchange/" to fill up with log files in
an exponential fashion.

i.e. error.log -> error.log.1.gz
   error.log.1.gz -> error.log.1.gz.1.gz

etc. until soon you have 30,000 log files and logrotated takes out your machine.




Fix
----

Change  /etc/logrotate.d/interchange to

/var/log/interchange/*log {
        rotate 4
        weekly
        compress
}


This is similar to how my samba rpm installs it's logrotate conf.
The interchange RPM needs to be fixed in this respect.

Yours
Murray
