- Add support for building using autotools/automake.
Using "./autogen.sh", "./configure" and "make" is now preferred way
how to build logrotate.
Old Makefile remains available, but it is deprecated and will be removed
in the future. Please report any problem related to new build system.
- Add support for systems which do not support fork (use vfork instead)
and madvise.
- Fix bug when wrong log file has been removed in case of dateext and
dateformat %d-%m-%Y.
- Do not expect that the name of root account is 'root'.
- Do not stop rotation with an error when olddir and log file
are on different devices and copy or copytruncate is used.
- Return an error code when parent directory of log does not exist,
"su" directive is not used, logrotate is running as root and missingok
is not specified. [vcizek]
- Prepend error printed by compression program with the log name even when
the compression program exits with zero exit code.
