[Letsencrypt-devel] Bug#881176: certbot should install /etc/logrotate.d/certbot

[spam_from_debian_bugs_2017 at chezphil.org]

Package: certbot
Version: 0.10.2-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

certbot saves log files in /var/log/letsencrypt.  There are 
at least two files per day.

Unless the intention is that these should simply accumulate 
forever, the package should install a file in /etc/logrotate.d 
that specifies how long they should be retained for, when they 
should be compressed, etc.

(It seems to me that certbot is doing some sort of log rotation 
by itself, i.e. it is renumbering the files, but it does not 
appear ever to be compressing or deleting anything.)


Thanks, Phil.
