Many packages drop config files for logrotate in

it.
I see 2 solutions for this:
1) Add "Requires: logrotate" to all packages which put files in
/etc/logrotate.d. IMHO this is not good as the user should be
able to choose if he wants logrotate or not.
2) Add /etc/logrotate.d to the filesystem package, this is my preferred
solution.
or
3) package logrotate files in an own subpackage which has strict Requires:
I would tend to 2 or 3; but dirs like /etc/cron.d, /usr/share/aclocal
should be handled by 2 too.
3 is rather ugly IMHO, so I still vote for 2, yes we may need this for other dirs too, but those need to be discussed and then filed seperately free feel to start threads for these.

Hans
