I have same issue (on a Red Hat Linux box) that I just noticed earlier
this morning. (Well worse: mine runs "postrotate" everyday too.)

My /etc/logrotate.d/apache also is set for weekly (and the logs are
rotated correctly every Sunday at 4:00). But it always runs the postrotate
commands everyday at 4:00 too.

(Sorry this is not Debian-specific. This is logrotate-3.5.4-1 RPM.)

I'll have to look at this further ...
