[Bug 913739] [NEW] nova-objectstore logrotate script uses 'dpkg-vendor'

[Andrew Glen-Young]

Public bug reported:

nova-objectstore's logrotate script uses 'dpkg-vendor' to try determine
how to restart nova-objectstore. This requires 'dpkg-dev' to be
installed which is not desirable.

The script really should use /etc/lsb-release.

Current logrotate script (/etc/logrotate.d/nova-objectstore):

    /var/log/nova/nova-objectstore.log {
        daily
        missingok
        postrotate
            if dpkg-vendor --derives-from ubuntu ; then
                restart nova-objectstore
            else
                invoke-rc.d nova-objectstore restart 2>&1 >/dev/null
            fi
        endscript
    }
