New issue 631 by simon.de...@gmail.com: logrotate unknown option 'su'
http://code.google.com/p/ganeti/issues/detail?id=631

* What software version are you running? Please provide the output of "gnt-
cluster --version", "gnt-cluster version", and "hspace --version".

# gnt-cluster --version
gnt-cluster (ganeti v2.9.1) 2.9.1
# gnt-cluster version
Software version: 2.9.1
Internode protocol: 2090000
Configuration format: 2090000
OS api version: 20
Export interface: 0
VCS version: v2.9.1
# hspace --version
hspace (ganeti) version v2.9.1
compiled with ghc 7.4
running on linux x86_64

* What distribution are you using?

Ubuntu using your Ganeti PPA package.

# lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS
Release: 12.04
# uname -m
x86_64


* What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install the package "ganeti" from Ganeti team PPA
2. Wait for the daily logrotate
3. Check cron emails

* What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

No cron emails should be sent but I got this error:

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
error: ganeti:10 unknown option 'su' -- ignoring line
error: ganeti:10 unexpected text

* Please provide any additional information below.

The logrotate job is like this:

# cat /etc/logrotate.d/ganeti
/var/log/ganeti/*.log {
weekly
missingok
rotate 52
notifempty
compress
delaycompress
create 640
sharedscripts
su root root
postrotate
/usr/lib/ganeti/daemon-util rotate-all-logs
endscript
}


I think the "su root root" part should be dropped and use "create 640 root
root" instead.

Thank you for the bug report. The bug corresponds to Ubuntu distribution
packages, which aren't maintained by the Ganeti team. Please file this bug
to the maintainers of the corresponding Ubuntu package.

This is because the version of logrotate in 12.04 LTS does not
support/need 'su'. I just uploaded a fixed set of packages to the PPA.

Thanks,

Thanks Apollon the new packages fixes the problem.
Next time should I open issues here or in the PPA bug tracker?

Well, if you're 100% sure it's a Ganeti bug (and not something in the
packaging), you should open issues here. In any case, if you open a bug in
Launchpad and it's Ganeti-specific, we will forward the bug report here.

Regards,
Apollon
