Subject: gidentd: does not rotate logfiles and therefore fills /var/log

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Package: gidentd
Version: 0.4.5-7.3
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 10.8
Tags: patch

gidentd does not rotate logfiles (neither etch nor sid). However the
policy requires this (and my /var/log fills ...):

Policy 10.8 says:
  Log files must be rotated occasionally so that they don't grow
  indefinitely; ...

A NMU diff is attached.

While investigating your package I also found following bugs:

At least the stable package does not remove logfiles when being purged
(policy says this should [!= must] happen).

Furthermore the package does not build with MAKEFLAGS=-j2.

Hello Helmut,

thank you for your patch; I will upload a fixed package tomorrow. Sorry
for the long delay; i've been on work and was not able to access my gpg
key nor did I find time to answer.
