Logcheck devel - Feb 2006 - Bug#353508: logcheck-database: Ignore (f|)cron messages, please

Package: logcheck-database
Version: 1.2.42
Severity: wishlist

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1


I use cron and fcron on my system.  I have them set to e-mail me if necessary,
so I don't need logcheck to show me their log messages, especially for
successful jobs.  Could rules to ignore these be added?  Here are some examples:

localhost fcron: Job curl --silent --show-error  -o ~/Misc/myDelicious.xml -O
'http://del.icio.us/api/posts/recent?count=10000' started for user me
(pid 12995)
localhost fcron: Job curl --silent --show-error  -o ~/Misc/myDelicious.xml -O
'http://del.icio.us/api/posts/recent?count=10000' completed

looked up fcron in popcon, not sure if should ship rules for fcron
in logcheck-database per default.

hope that the maintainer can add some logcheck rules for his users.
hints about logcheck rules:
