My logrotate.conf file looks like:

# see "man logrotate" for details
# rotate log files weekly
weekly

# keep 4 weeks worth of backlogs
rotate 4

# create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones
create

# uncomment this if you want your log files compressed
#compress

# packages drop log rotation information into this directory
include /etc/logrotate.d

# no packages own wtmp, or btmp -- we'll rotate them here
/var/log/wtmp {
    missingok
    monthly
    create 0664 root utmp
    rotate 1
}

/var/log/btmp {
    missingok
    monthly
    create 0664 root utmp
    rotate 1
}

# system-specific logs may be configured here

The logrotate.d directory looks like:

ls -ltr /etc/logrotate.d/
total 12
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 380 May  1  2002 base-config
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 301 Feb  4 17:59 squid
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 650 Mar 16 09:23 dansguardian

The dansguardian looks like:

cat /etc/logrotate.d/dansguardian
/var/log/dansguardian/access.log {
        rotate 5
        daily
        prerotate
                echo Starting Log Rotoate >>
/home/dansguardian/LogRotateOutPut
                date >> /home/dansguardian/LogRotateOutPut
                echo Stopping DansGuardian >>
/home/dansguardian/LogRotateOutPut
                /etc/init.d/dansguardian stop >>
/home/dansguardian/LogRotateOutPut 2>&1 || true
                echo Running Report >> /home/dansguardian/LogRotateOutPut
                /home/dansguardian/GetDGReport >>
/home/dansguardian/LogRotateOutPut 2>&1
        endscript
        postrotate
                echo Starting DansGuardian >>
/home/dansguardian/LogRotateOutPut
                sleep 2 && /etc/init.d/dansguardian start >>
/home/dansguardian/LogRotateOutPut 2>&1
        endscript
}

Yet when the cron does a run-parts I get the following output:

My question: why is the including /etc/logrotate.d happening two times. I
