In the syslog-ng.spec there is a requirement for logrotate: syslog-ng installs
a file in the /etc/logrotate.d directory which is owned by the logrotate package.

   $ rpm -qf /etc/logrotate.d/
   logrotate-3.7.4-12.fc6

The rename broke the usage of syslog-ng as a sysklogd replacement. Syslog-ng
needs to ship the same file as sysklogd (same MD5 digest to avoid file
conflicts): logrotate doesn't like that two different configuration scripts
rotate the same log files.
