FC5: logrotate failure (inconsistent date in logrotate.status)

Hello all,


seems that logrotate (logrotate-3.7.3-2.2.1) fails here for weeks, as I see
abnormally growing logs. /var/log/messages shows:

logrotate: ALERT exited abnormally with [1]


I wonder if that's related, but launching `logrotate /etc/logrotate.conf`
manually tells me:

error: bad year 1932 for file /var/log/cups/access_log in state file /var/lib/logrotate.status


I can see many lines in /var/lib/logrotate.status that show such 1932-date.
This status file itself is dated from 1932-10-25. Any idea wow could I fix
that w/o breaking anything?


Regards,
