~> man logrotate
[...]OPTIONS[...]
-s, --state <statefile>
Tells logrotate to use an alternate state file. This is useful if
logrotate is being run as a different user for various sets of log files.
The default state file is /var/lib/logrotate.status.
[...]
FILES
/var/lib/misc/logrotate.status Default state file.
[...]
The two locations do not match each other. The (new) default is
/var/lib/misc/logrotate.status as correctly mentioned in the FILES part.
