To use logrotate:
* If /opt/local/etc/logrotate.conf does not exist copy the example into place.
$ sudo cp /opt/local/share/logrotate/logrotate.conf.example /opt/local/etc/logrotate.conf
* With the startupitem variant (+startupitem) you can activate a scheduled log
rotation with this command.
$ sudo port load logrotate
* To create your own startup item with non-default intervals, build logrotate
without the startupitem variant (-startupitem), copy the example into place
and edit to your liking, then load with launchctl when finished.
$ sudo cp /opt/local/share/logrotate/org.macports.logrotate.plist.example /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.logrotate.plist
$ sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.logrotate.plist
