Before clamav had this new LogRotate option, the system handled it itself.
The more I'm looking at it, the more I think we should make LogRotate false
and set the file size option to 0 and not have clamav anything about rotating
the files. Let lograte do it like it did before. We've clearly added a bunch
more complexity to potentially expose to the user and I'm not sure what it
buys.
On platforms that don't have a good log rotation facility, this might make
sense, but the more I look at it, the less I think we need it.
Are you suggesting to set LogRotate to false by default, which still
could be changed by dpkg-reconfigure clamav-base?
I don't care either way, but this wouldn't help for anyone enabling
this, who still had to run dpkg-reconfigure clamav-daemon and so on.
Or are you suggesting to completely remove the option for LogRotate?
But then, how should we handle the case, when a user sets it in
clamd.conf? Just ignore it?
I think the easiest (and thus best?) way forward is to add a comment in
README.Debian or the clamav-base/LogRotate template (or both) explaining
that one has to run dpkg-reconfigure for the other packages to update
the logrotation file.
Best regards,
Andreas
