At least in Gentoo there are packages

/var/log and enable logrotate to handle the log files there.

Is this something you can get fixed?

I hope it will be fixed soon. Would be nice to have CVEs assigned for these
issues anyway, just to make people aware. If even package maintainers got it
wrong, I bet there's a legion of users who also did.

For this to happen, you need to post info on the specific issues and
request CVEs for them.  Will you do this, please?  (Perhaps start a new
thread, or even a thread per package - that's up to you.)

Thanks!
