# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line # up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' on # the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must make # exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also customary to # leave one space after the ':'. |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------| logrotate: logrotate (system log rotation tool) logrotate: logrotate: The logrotate utility is designed to simplify the administration logrotate: of log files on a system which generates a lot of log files. logrotate: Logrotate allows for the automatic rotation compression, removal logrotate: and mailing of log files.
