to fix up everything in /var/log.  btmp is used whenever there is a
login failure (I think only failure...)

not sure how it got mislabeled (what is supposed to create it, anyone
know?  do you remember at some time untaring a bunch of files
in /var/log?   or cp'ing in files?  somehow it got created without the
'right' label) but it is occasional because people only occasionally
screw up logging in and you get the denial because it is mislabeled.
Fix the label and you should be good from now on.

Thanks, it was mislabeled.  I don't know how but it's fixed now.

It'll be logrotate.
