Name : logrotate Product : Fedora 26 Version : 3.12.1 Release : 1.fc26 URL : https://github.com/logrotate/logrotate Summary : Rotates, compresses, removes and mails system log files Description : The logrotate utility is designed to simplify the administration of log files on a system which generates a lot of log files. Logrotate allows for the automatic rotation compression, removal and mailing of log files. Logrotate can be set to handle a log file daily, weekly, monthly or when the log file gets to a certain size. Normally, logrotate runs as a daily cron job.
Install the logrotate package if you need a utility to deal with the log files on your system.
