Since this change I'm getting:

# logrotate /etc/logrotate.conf
error: puppetmaster:1 duplicate log entry for /var/log/puppet/masterhttp.log

due to /var/log/puppet/*log in /etc/logrotate.d/puppet and
/var/log/puppet/masterhttp.log in /etc/logrotate.d/puppetmaster
both on the same machine refer to the same logfile.

Running:

  mv /etc/logrotate.d/puppetmaster /etc/logrotate.d/puppetmaster.disabled

works around this issue.

BTW: I'd also vote for checking the initfiles with [ -x ... ] within
/etc/logrotate.d/puppet so if the init script(s) doesn't have
execute flags it's not trying to be executed.

Thanks for your work.

regards,
