This isn't a duplicate at all. The other bug is asking for MORE log
files, not for them to be rotated.

** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 274870
   Xorg should keep more rotated logs

** Description changed:

- Wishlist item!
- 
- Sometimes, especially when crashes/reboots are involved, two log files
- (/var/log/Xorg.0.log and /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old) just ain't enough.
- 
  [Almost] every other log file in /var/log uses logrotate... couldn't
  X.org do likewise?
  
  I understand that this isn't a high-priority item, but it would be
  really great.

** Tags added: precise
