I have just noticed a problem with my logs files. Usually they are automatically compressed (gziped) regularly (usually every second day) depending on how large they are. However I have just noticed that they have stopped being compressed, so my logs are HUGE.
Have you modified one of the xxxx.local files under /etc/logdigest reciently (after Nov 23, last observed compression)? If so, there is a problem (or was) with logdigest where it chokes on *extra* empty lines at bottom of the file.
On my 9.1 Pro system, overall log rotation and compression appear to be configured in "/etc/logrotate.conf". Package-specific configuration is configured in files in "/etc/lograte.d". There is no "/etc/logdigest" (either directory or file).
