Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] Do not keep empty log files for deleted domains

With logrotates copytruncate when e.g. domain1 doesn't exist anymore /var/log/libvirt/qemu/domain1.log will still exist after rotation even though it will never be written to. When new domain names keep getting used this leads to a lot of empty logfiles. This may lead to slowdown or lack of free disk space / inodes. Fix this by replacing copytruncate with the apropriate postrotate command to reopen log files. Thus after the apropriate time log files for deleted domains will be gone. This also has the advantage that the chance for loss of a few lines during copytruncate is gone.
