Description
Currently there is code for log rotation but there isn't a way for packages to influence how that rotation is handled without using their own custom newsyslog config file.
The existing code for logging uses a format in the package info.xml file like this:
<logging>
<logsocket>/tmp/haproxy_chroot/var/run/log</logsocket>
<facilityname>haproxy</facilityname>
<logfilename>haproxy.log</logfilename>
</logging>
That needs to be extended to support the rotation parameters mentioned in #9711
