Moved logrotate options into specific parts for each log as "global" options
will persist past and clobber global options in the main logrotate config
(bsc#1180525).

Fixed plaintext password entries in logfiles (bsc#1184016).

The freeradius package has been updated to version 3.0.22, fixing these issues
and other bugs. See the upstream release announcements for details.
