Subject: [PATCH] services: rottlog: Keep important /var/log files for 16
 weeks.

The default "rotate" value is 1 as of rottlog 0.72.2, meaning that only
one rotated file would be kept in addition to the active file.

* gnu/services/admin.scm (%default-rotations): Add "rotate" option for
%ROTATED-FILES.
