Public bug reported:
I had an entry in /etc/logrotate.d declared like:
compress
compresscmd /usr/bin/xz
uncompresscmd /usr/bin/unxz
According to man 5 logrotate.conf, the default extension for compressed
files ought to be whatever the compresscmd outputs
compressext
Specifies which extension to use on compressed logfiles, if
compression is enabled. The default follows that of the con‐
figured compression command.
However, my logs are .gz files, even though when I do run "file" on them
, it says "XZ compressed data"
