[Logcheck-devel] BUG - logtail2 failing if bzip2 is used
Hello, logtail 1.2.60. logtail2 has a hardcoded '.gz' suffix during various checks of rotated archive logfiles, but if you use bzip2 for compressing them, it fails, of course. -- Micha? J?czalik, +48.603.64.62.97 INFONAUTIC, +48.33.487.69.04

What keeps you from implementing your own scheme? I'd like to keep the compression scheme detection code as easy as possible, it's ugly enough that one needs to guess how a given log is rotated.
