Bug Description

Hi Guys,

currently Logrotate 3.11 is shipped with bionic 18.04.

logrotate -v /etc/logrotate.conf prints error messages like

```
compressing log with: /bin/gzip
error: Compressing program wrote following message to stderr when compressing log /var/log/auth.log-20190716:
switching uid to 0 and gid to 109
```

This is fixed in version 3.14

Source: https://github.com/logrotate/logrotate/blob/3.15.0/ChangeLog.md#3140---2018-03-09

Please add 3.14 to bionic (18.04).

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me.

Cheers Tim
