What I meant is to add the "su root root"-line to the logrotate-conf file for p-common dynamically in the postinst-script depending on the version of logrotate. No need to change dependency, as p-common already depends on logrotate. It might be needed to change from depends to pre-depends on logrotate, so a probably newer version is surely isntalled before p-commons's postinst is reached. I'm not sure if this would really be needed.
