I just noticed a similar problem on my system. I've installed systemd-cron and purged cron.

Now systemd handles daily jobs:
$ systemctl status cron-daily.timer
● cron-daily.timer - systemd-cron daily timer
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/cron-daily.timer; static; vendor preset: enabled)
   Active: active (waiting) since Thu 2018-05-10 12:46:37 CEST; 3min 37s ago
  Trigger: Fri 2018-05-11 06:25:00 CEST; 17h left
     Docs: man:systemd.cron(7)

mai 10 12:46:37 gandalf systemd[1]: Started systemd-cron daily timer.

Now log files should be rotated again.
