Logcheck is a package to filter system log events for the administrator.
Its aim is to remove chatter from the log files, leaving only the events
that the administrator needs to deal with.
Please ship snippets for consumption by the logcheck package.
If you use debhelper or CDBS, this is very simple:
1. provide your snippets in debian/<package>.logcheck.<type>
where <type> is one of the following:
violations
violations.ignore
ignore.workstation
ignore.server
ignore.paranoid
2. add a call to dh_installlogcheck in debian/rules, if you use debhelper
without the automatic sequencer
3. add a versioned Breaks: logcheck-database (<= 1.3.16~) to your control
file
If the logcheck-database package already ships rules for ppp, please be
aware that this will change very soon. You should check and integrate the
current snippets into the ppp package at the earliest opportunity.
For further information, please see README.Maintainers in the logcheck
package.
