DetailsDescription:
Running version i686 arch 2010.05 "Linux 2.6.34-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Jul 5 21:03:38 UTC 2010 i686 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7400 @ 2.80GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux" Package: logrotate-3.7.8-1 In an older version of logrotate i can use the $1 variable in the prerotate section of the logrotate.conf or and files listed in the logrotate.d directory. now if list multiple files and use the $1 variable the $1 does not list the next file in the list. It seems this is an issue with the prerotate section due to you can rotate the files not using the prerotate and the files are listed to be rotated. Here's the commands i use to show the rotate: logrotate --debug --force /etc/logrotate.conf Here's the file contents with the prerotate script. ############### /var/log/auth.log /var/log/crond.log /var/log/daemon.log /var/log/kernel.log /var/log/lpr.log /var/log/mail.log /var/log/news.log /var/log/user.log /var/log/debug.log /var/log/errors.log /var/log/messages.log /var/log/iptables.log /var/log/pacman.log /var/log/network.log { ## DO NOT COMPRESS..

Try logrotate-3.7.9-1 in [testing]. I believe that fixes this issue.
