            Bug ID: 194864
           Summary: newsyslog(8) does not delete old files after config
                    change
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.0-STABLE
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: Needs Triage
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: rs@bytecamp.net

Lets assume the following entry in /etc/newsyslog.conf:

/var/log/httpd-suexec.log               640  14    *    @T00  JC 

After 14 days, there are 14 compressed files httpd-suexec.N.log.bz2 in
/var/log.
Now lower the count from 14 to 7:

/var/log/httpd-suexec.log               640  7    *    @T00  JC 

One may assume, that newsyslog will delete 7 files in the next run, since there
should only be kept 7 old logfiles. 

But it doesn't, it just deletes the 8th old logfile (httpd-suexec.log.7.bz2)
and keeps httpd-suexec.log.{8,9,10,11,12,13}.bz2.
