If you have success with that (or not), we can add a FAQ entry about this. Christoph -- cb@df7cb.de | http://www.df7cb.de/

Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu (unless you happen to be using a Debian-based version which they also provide), and Linux Mint 15 (Olivia) is equivalent to Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail).
So instead of the codename "olivia" you would normally use "raring", but only Ubuntu LTS is supported, so you could try "precise" instead.

There's a known incompatibility between 13.04 and precise-pgdg with logrotate. Workarounds are uninstalling logrotate, or installing precise's logrotate.

logrotate. Workarounds are uninstalling logrotate, or installing
precise's logrotate.
