Comment (by brian at matzon.dk):

 hmm, thats pretty strange. I agree with you, and did a grep for
 logrotate.conf, which came up short.

 I was doing a slew of upgrades (among those were logrotate), and later
 that evening I got a:
 error: cannot stat /opt/local/etc/logrotate.conf: No such file or
 directory
 looking at my backup, I had that file in etc, so I assumed that the
 upgrade of logrotate had deleted my old file.

 Ufortunately, I upgraded at least 20 ports when doing the upgrade - so not
 sure what caused it. I cannot find any other Portfile that contains
 references to logrotate, and with the potential to remove it.
