Yes, this works, but I don't want to create this with an extra command,
because the application (script) delivers the own crontab (/etc/cron.d/ and
own logrotate (etc/logrotate.d) file.
I thought this is enough and that logrotate is going to create the logfile with
the right permissions.

So maybe I overlook something in the configuration from logrotate?
If it is not possible, so I have to use "install" or "touch,chmod/chown" ...
