It still fails with the most recent version, though with different errors now:

The problem is that /etc/logrotate.d/denyhosts sources /etc/denyhosts.conf which is *not* a valid shell script, because there are space around equal signs of the configuration settings, e.g.:
SECURE_LOG = /var/log/auth.log
