Package: exim4-base
Version: 4.71-3ubuntu1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
Hi,
Because there's a request for patches in /etc/cron.daily/exim4-base
regarding rotated logs attached is my take on this. It's been written
on Ubuntu but (hence the version) but I hope there's not too much
difference.
Please note that I've moved exim4-base from /etc/cron.daily to
/etc/cron.weekly as I've got no interest in daily exim logs, which is
also the reason for the `seq 1 7`.
If you apply this patch to the package, please consider leaving the
for-loop (with `seq 1 1`) in so that people with weekly logs can easily
patch it.
thanks,
Mrten.
