Package: rsyslog
Version: 8.2302.0-1+deb12u1devuan1
/usr/lib/rsyslog/rsyslog-rotate uses invoke-rc.d to notify rsyslog to
reopen logs but it doesn't work when using
policy-rcd-declarative-deny-all so shouldn't the logrotate
configuration snippet use rather 'service' ?

Possibly, although all the other logrotate fragments I can find use invoke-rc.d.
Why do you have policy-rcd-declarative-deny-all installed anyway? I suppose the
rationale goes that if you deny starting services in the first place, you don't
need to rotate the logs because they will be empty/unchanged.

Please see #881 or should I copy the story here as well?

No. Really these are all the same issue. I will merge them for now while we look
at the detail.
