logrotate's conf did not do that. Who does the config file for
mythbackend for logrotate?
I now made it to be:
# cat mythbackend
/var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log {
notifempty
missingok
compress
compresscmd /usr/bin/bzip2
uncompresscmd /usr/bin/bunzip2
compressext .bz2
weekly
rotate 4
size 10M
postrotate
/bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/mythbackend.pid 2> /dev/null` 2>
/dev/null || true
endscript
}
