Package: logrotate
Version: 3.7.1-5
Severity: wishlist

Please consider enable "dateext" as default in /etc/logrotate.conf

I know it's a change for numerous installations, but I think
it really solves more problems than it can cause :
- no rename, so no race condition between rotated files
- easier to cope with backup systems
- easier rules for filesystem alteration checkers like aide, samhain...
