[LTP] "logrotate01" has problem

["Yuki Yao" <y_yao@ryobi.co.jp>]

Hi,

I contributed following problem previously, but it's not yet revised.
So, I contribute this again.

After "./runltp" execution, all log files such as "/var/log/messages*" 
disappeared, and there is only new log file created after the test.

This seems a problem that occurs after the "logrotate01" test. 
I found that the past log files were deleted by forcing a "logrotate"
(logrotate -fv $LTPTMP/tst_logrotate.conf).

Besides, logrotate01's shell script "./testcases/commands/logrotate
/logrotate_tests.sh" creats logrotate configuration file ($LTPTMP
/tst_logrotate.conf) for the test, and this configration file includes
"/etc/logrotate.d" as follows:

[ ./testcases/commands/logrotate/logrotate_tests.sh line:156~ ]
----------
# create config file.
	cat >$LTPTMP/tst_logrotate.conf <<-EOF
	#****** Begin Config file *******
	# create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones
	create

	# compress the log files
	compress

	# RPM packages drop log rotation information into this directory
	include /etc/logrotate.d

	/var/log/tst_logfile {
		rotate 5
		weekly
	}
	#****** End Config file *******
	EOF
----------

By This, not only a log file for the test (/var/log/tst_logfile) 
but also 30 fies such as "/var/log/messages*" become "logrotate" 
command target.
Only a log file for this test must become a target of the forced 
execution of "logrotate".

To resolve this problem, we must change "/logrotate_tests.sh" not to 
include "/etc/logrotate.d", I think.

I'm glad if I got some opinion about this.

Thank you,
