Easy: Give cyclog such a large limit on the file size and the number
of files that it is sure to fill the disk before hitting its own
limit. Then run a cron job to rotate the logs. What could be
simpler? Just make sure the file size limit is not too large, since
there must be some finished log files for the log rotater to rotate.
