Comment(by andre.mueller@…):

 Hello

 I "investigated" the dateext feature. The dateext feature is already
 present also in the Debian distribution and in the 3.7.1 version. The
 patch for dateext originates from RedHat and is contained in the Debian
 source as "rh-dateext.patch". Also in the diff file
 "logrotate_3.7.1-5.diff" fetched by macports the dateext patch is present
 but it seems that the patch is not applied by macports on build and/or
 installing phase. Unfortunately I am not able / knowing to less about
 macports to overwrite locally the Portfile settings in order this patch is
 applied.

 I would be very grateful to the maintainer of this port, to apply the
 dateext patch as soon as possible, or giving a hint how I can apply the
 patch by myself on my local copy of logrotate.

 Thank you in advances and with best regards,

 André
