[opensuse-factory] create in /etc/logrotate.d/syslog
HI! Currently /etc/logrotate.d/syslog contains the line create 640 root root which re-creates the log file with given ownership and permission. Is there a compelling reason to do so? Background of my question: I've implemented an ansible role for installing/configuring mtail which uses setfacl on /var/log/messages (one of the log files monitored by mtail) to grant read access to the demon user running mtail. Within this ansible role I do not want to modify the system's logrotate config. When logrotate runs it normally preserves file system ACLs, but not when "create" config option is used. Other mainstream Linux distros like Debian Buster and CentOS 7.7 do not use "create" config option. Ciao, Michael.

The easiest way to find out the answer to this question:
zypper info syslog-service
