Hi,

Recently I received a bug report about logrotate and RHEL 8: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1802165 In RHEL 8 /etc/logroate.d/syslog is now rsyslog specific and thus conflicts with the same file coming from syslog-ng. I changed my test repo https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/czanik/syslog-ng-githead/ in a way that RHEL 7 keeps using /etc/logroate/syslog, but all the Fedora and RHEL 8 packages change the logroate file name to /etc/logroate/syslog-ng.

Of course this means, that there is no conflict with rsyslog and there are two logrotate scripts for the same set of logs.

I am trying to test it on my own as well on RHEL 8, but any additional testing and feedback are very welcome!

Thanks,
