   Create a virtual router. Wait for dnsmasq.log to exceed 10M and be rotated two or more times. The rotated log files are not compressed.
   
   Contained within cloud-scripts.tgz on systemvm.iso, the file etc/logrotate.d/dnsmasq specifies the delaycompress option. Presumably this means the intention was for the logs to be compressed, but as noted in the manpage for logrotate, the delaycompress option "only has effect when used in combination with compress".

   <!-- You can also paste gist.github.com links for larger files -->
   
   ##### EXPECTED RESULTS
   <!-- What did you expect to happen when running the steps above? -->
   I expected logs dnsmasq.log.2 and higher to be compressed as per this hypothetical output.
   ~~~
   $ ls /var/log/dnsmasq.log*
   /var/log/dnsmasq.log
   /var/log/dnsmasq.log.1
   /var/log/dnsmasq.log.2.gz
   /var/log/dnsmasq.log.3.gz
   ~~~
   
   ##### ACTUAL RESULTS
   <!-- What actually happened? -->
   None of the log files are compressed.
   <!-- Paste verbatim command output between quotes below -->
   ~~~
   $ ls /var/log/dnsmasq.log*
   /var/log/dnsmasq.log
   /var/log/dnsmasq.log.1
   /var/log/dnsmasq.log.2
   /var/log/dnsmasq.log.3
   ~~~
   
   To fix, the "compress" option should be added to /etc/logrotate.d/dnsmasq
