[Bug 2077407] Re: /etc/logrotate.d/exim4-paniclog has wrong content

[Bryce Harrington]

The issue was indeed the change to debhelper.  In a PPA, I modified it
to allow --name for dh_installlogrotate, and then rebuilt exim4 against
that.  Upgrading exim4 to the rebuilt version then correctly installed
the rotate config:

/var/log/exim4/paniclog {
        size 10M
        missingok
        rotate 10
        compress
        delaycompress
        notifempty
        nocreate
}

So, for fixing this it looks like the fixed logrotate will need to be
posted to the archive, and then once it's built in -proposed, update
exim4 to require that version as a built depends and upload that as
well.

No SRU will be necessary since the debhelper change was only introduced
to oracular.  However, any other packages besides exim4 that also rely
on installing logrotate with --name will also need rebuilt.
