Why do you want this? I certainly don't want the logs on our hosts
rotated just because I install a new version of Exim. They are rotated
daily so that we can easily search on a per-day basis.
Is this something lots of people want? Is it common? I suspect that
there will be plenty of people on both sides of this one, and therefore
I don't think any change should be made. It is presumably easy enough to
make a script that calls "exicyclog; make install" if you want this.
