* Interaction with logrotate with custom logtarget
Comment to #631917
if you use an alternative logtarget (e.g. SYSLOG) thus not using
/var/log/fail2ban.log you should divert logrotate configuration into
a disabled state, e.g.
sudo dpkg-divert --rename --divert \
/etc/logrotate.d/fail2ban.disabled /etc/logrotate.d/fail2ban
