I noticed something similar by running a docker container with runit (do
not ask why).

The default /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog calls
/usr/lib/rsyslog/rsyslog-rotate which in turn checks for

if [ -d /run/systemd/system ]; then
    systemctl kill -s HUP rsyslog.service
else
    invoke-rc.d rsyslog rotate > /dev/null
fi

but does not restart rsyslog as it should. Most likely a problem with
the PATH to /usr/sbin/ where both binaries reside if present.

I took a shortcut  and replaced in /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog

/usr/lib/rsyslog/rsyslog-rotate with /usr/sbin/service rsyslog rotate


Grtz.
