#40184: logrotate @3.8.6_2 enhance startup item for hourly directive
------------------------------+--------------------------------
 Reporter:  nonstop.server@…  |      Owner:  macports-tickets@…
     Type:  enhancement       |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal            |  Milestone:
Component:  ports             |    Version:  2.2.0
 Keywords:  haspatch          |       Port:  logrotate
------------------------------+--------------------------------
 Enhance the example launchd plist to grant users the option to use the
 hourly directive.
 {{{
 hourly Log files are rotated every hour. Note that usually logrotate is
        configured to be run by cron daily. You have to change this con-
        figuration  and run logrotate hourly to be able to really rotate
        logs hourly.
 }}}
 The proposed patch has also two other changes, namely two added keys,
 `LowPriorityIO` and `Nice` which are used in the plist for newsyslogd.
 {{{
 LowPriorityIO <boolean>
      This optional key specifies whether the kernel should consider this
 daemon to be low
      priority when doing file system I/O.
 Nice <integer>
      This optional key specifies what nice(3) value should be applied to
 the daemon.
 }}}
