Subject: [bug#65792] [PATCH] gnu: rottlog: Add gawk as an input.

From: Skyler <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 07 Sep 2023 02:01:51 +0000

This avoids an issue where rottlog will delete the entire /tmp directory
if gawk is not installed.

* gnu/packages/admin.scm (rottlog): Add gawk input, also update the
patch-paths build phase for awk invocations.
