SOLVED Missing logrotate for `collectd.log`

[fbartels]

Hi,

I was noticing my server running short in disk space and during investigation I noticed that my collectd.log had grown to a size of 1.1gb.

It would be nice if the file can be added to the log rotation.

Yes that is a true problem, mine is also about a gig in size.

This seems to be an ubuntu packaging bug even since it doesn't seem to install logrotate files (we just use upstream collectd package). I found https://bugs.launchpad.net/networking-ovs-dpdk/+bug/1644135 which is a similar bug.

I have made a fix for the next release.

Nice, thanks @girish
