Package: freeradius
Version: 3.0.12+dfsg-5+deb9u1
The logrotate config file that ships with freeradius sets global options
in its file (/etc/logrotate.d/freeradius). These options do not just
apply to the freeradius log files, but to all log files that logrotate
encounters after processing /etc/logrotate.d/freeradius (e.g. other logs
defined in /etc/logrotate.d with a filename that come later
alphabetically). You can verify this by making a modification tothe
global options in/etc/logrotate.d/freeradius(such as adding"maxsize
1k"), then running logrotate in debug mode:
logrotate -d /etc/logrotate.conf
If you look at the output, you'll notice that all logs files encountered
after the freeradius log files now have the"maxsize 1k" applied to them
even if they didn't define it themselves. The global options set within
/etc/logrotate.d/freeradius are not just global options for the log
files defined in that file; they are system wide. To avoid conflicting
with other log file definitions, the options need to be duplicated for
each log file. You could also just group together everything but
radius.log if you wanted to avoid a bunch of duplication.
