Hmm, one problem with /etc/logrotate.d is that this would create a .pacnew or .pacsave file which is executed by logrotate as well.

That's a bit problematic. Anyway, I put apache to IgnorePkg slot in pacman.conf so I remember to fix httpd logrotate file when I upgrade apache.

Overall some kind of solution to the /etc/logrotate.d/ files would be in place? There are other config files too and if users modify them they have the same problem.

Can this be done now that logrotate has been fixed for pacnew files?

I fixed it in SVN. Is it worth to make a rebuild?
