The uncompressed files correspond to logrotate errors in /etc/warn. Looks like a typo (variable name transposed with a cli argument) inserted by an update after May 14: -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 389 May 13 20:29 mysqld.log-20120514.bz2 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 1414 May 18 11:44 mysqld.log-20120515 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 739 May 20 20:14 mysqld.log-20120519 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 794 May 22 09:21 mysqld.log-20120521 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 739 May 26 14:03 mysqld.log-20120523 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 658 May 28 08:23 mysqld.log-20120527 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 658 May 31 09:24 mysqld.log-20120529 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 794 Jun 4 06:32 mysqld.log-20120601 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 739 Jun 7 21:10 mysqld.log-20120605 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 794 Jun 9 09:49 mysqld.log-20120608 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 739 Jun 10 06:44 mysqld.log-20120610 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 794 Jun 15 08:27 mysqld.log-20120611 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 739 Jun 17 06:55 mysqld.log-20120616 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 794 Jun 21 05:04 mysqld.log-20120618 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 739 Jun 23 17:49 mysqld.log-20120622 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 658 Jun 25 16:26 mysqld.log-20120624 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 794 Jul 1 03:56 mysqld.log-20120626 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 1994 Jul 4 08:41 mysqld.log-20120702 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 794 Jul 6 05:04 mysqld.log-20120705 -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 104 Jul 6 05:04 mysqld.log-20120707.bz2 regards, Carl -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
