Package: logrotate
Version: 3.7.8-6
Severity: normal
Line numbers reported with some messages appear to be off by one (too
low).
For example, with /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog starting as follows (line
numbers added):
1 /var/log/syslog
2 {
3 rotate 7
4 daily
5 missingok
6 notifempty
7 delaycompress
8 compress
9 postrotate
10 invoke-rc.d rsyslog reload > /dev/null
11 endscript
12 }
13
14 /test
15 /test
running logrotate yields:
error: rsyslog:13 duplicate log entry for /test
even though there's no test on line 13.
For an error on line 1, logrotate does correctly report line 1 (not line 0),
so the problem does not seem to be in line numbering itself, but instead
in keeping track of the line number corresponding to the parsing state.
