Summary0005668: logrotate is not being started
Description

It seems since June 2018 the logrotate is not being run on my Kali Rolling.

cat /etc/cron.daily/logrotate

skip in favour of systemd timer

if [ -d /run/systemd/system ]; then
exit 0
fi
....

However there are no systemd timers for logrotate:

systemctl list-timers --all

This is fixed for new installations with base-files 2019.4.0.

Otherwise, you have to run "systemctl enable logrotate.timer" to make sure that logrotate will run.
