The default syslogd (rsyslogd) in debian does that:
/var/log/mail.info
/var/log/mail.warn
/var/log/mail.err
/var/log/mail.log
/var/log/daemon.log
/var/log/kern.log
/var/log/auth.log
/var/log/user.log
/var/log/lpr.log
/var/log/cron.log
/var/log/debug
/var/log/messages
{
rotate 4
weekly
missingok
notifempty
compress
delaycompress
sharedscripts
postrotate
/usr/lib/rsyslog/rsyslog-rotate
endscript
}
cat /usr/lib/rsyslog/rsyslog-rotate
#!/bin/sh
if [ -d /run/systemd/system ]; then
systemctl kill -s HUP rsyslog.service
else
invoke-rc.d rsyslog rotate > /dev/null
