I suggest 'logs fill up /var' for this problem (which they do, which is not directly related to carvbon, and for which log rotation is a solution) and we use the separate bug #1162905 to track any carbon-specific issue.

I'd prefer we track log abusers individually; a metabug isn't really very actionable. We've already done similar patches for a couple of other noisy components as well (cobbler and puppet IIRC).

Per discussion with Ian, the intent here was that this bug look into rotating the logs. Bug 1162905 is to look at carbon's settings and potentially turn down it's verbosity (or fix whatever else is making it mouthy) regardless of log rotation.
