Bug description:
  current build number: 194
  device name: krillin
  channel: ubuntu-touch/ubuntu-rtm/14.09-proposed
  last update: 2015-01-14 14:01:42
  version version: 194
  version ubuntu: 20150114
  version device: 20150113-2a2e4c5
  version custom: 20150112-494-23-173

  /var/log/syslog {
      # don't use time based rotation, but size-based
      size 10M
      # do not keep old files at all
      rotate 0
      # don't use compression
      nocompress
      postrotate
          service rsyslog reload >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
      endscript
  }

  Only 10MB makes it harder to debug as sometimes we need a bit more
  data in order to get useful results from the debug log. One example is
  looking for suspend failures, since we can't really go back much in
  time when investigating syslog.

  20MB would already be enough for now.
