Package: apache*
Version: all apache versions (afaik)
Severity: normal
On a debian server I manage, and this one I use as a desktop,
I have found that the default configuration in logrotate.d for
apache install keeps logs for a year. This is overkill, imho,
and has led to two servers i know of going down because of a full
hard drive. If you choose to leave it this way please find some way
to notify server admins. Thank you.

I'm inclined to agree with Andrew on this one, and am closing the bug.
"My logs eat disk space, and I don't pay attention to how much I have"
isn't really a bug in the package, just a problem with keeping track of
how much space you have (unless the logs are growing VERY rapidly, which
they aren't).
