[Bug 1977689] Re: Wrong error msg: "state file /var/lib/logrotate/status is world-readable" although it is not

My bad, it seems you have pushed  3.20.1-1ubuntu1 to Lunar and Kinetic after all.
When we can expect 3.20.1-1ubuntu1 released for Jammy?

Title:

  readable" although it is not

Status in logrotate package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:

  Every hour, I receive this wrong message:

  Subject:	Cron <root@<hostname>>    cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly
  /etc/cron.hourly/logrotate:
  error: state file /var/lib/logrotate/status is world-readable and thus can be locked from other unprivileged users. Skipping lock acquisition...

  despite:

  # ls -al /var/lib/logrotate
