Package: logrotate
Version: 3.8.1-4
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

Attempted to use /var/log/*/*.log to match /var/log/<machinename>/*.log on our 
central syslog server


   * What was the outcome of this action?

Logrotate only rotatated the first directory matched i.e.

/var/log/a/*.log was rotated

/var/log/b/*.log remained untouched

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

All logs in all directories under /var/log to be rotated
