That is, if the elapsed time has expired, and there is data, but not yet 100k of data, am I correct that minsize would prevent the rotation while notifempty would allow it? I'm thinking this is a patch in the right direction, but am hoping someone else will chime in since I don't have much personal experience with logrotate. -- Eric Blake eblake@xxxxxxxxxx +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
