[Logcheck-devel] Bug#355383: logcheck: Should ignore backup files in .d dirs
Package: logcheck Version: 1.2.43a Severity: wishlist I just got this e-mail from logcheck: " Security Events for su~ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-... " Note the tilde in the "su~". It comes from here: " foo:/etc/logcheck/violations.d# ls * logcheck su su~ sudo su.dpkg-old " The su~ file is obviously a backup file created by Emacs or whatever from when I've been editing the "su" file. I'd like logcheck to ignore backup files (files with names ending in ~) when it does its thing. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-686-smp Locale: LANG=sv_SE, LC_CTYPE=sv_SE (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages logcheck depends on: ii adduser 3.80 Add and remove users and groups ii cron 3.0pl1-92 management of regular background p ii debconf [debconf 1.4.70 Debian configuration management sy ii debianutils 2.15.2 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii exim [mail-trans 3.36-18 An MTA (Mail Transport Agent) ii grep 2.5.1.ds2-4 GNU grep, egrep and fgrep ii lockfile-progs 0.1.10 Programs for locking and unlocking ii logcheck-databas 1.2.43a database of system log rules for t ii logtail 1.2.43a Print log file lines that have not ii mailx 1:8.1.2-0.20050715cvs-1 A simple mail user agent ii sysklogd [system 1.4.1-17 System Logging Daemon logcheck recommends no packages. -- debconf information: * logcheck/security_level: server * logcheck/manage_conffiles: true * logcheck/auto_create_logfiles: true * logcheck/upgrade-note: * logcheck/changes: * logcheck/install-note: * logcheck/rules-directories-note: * logcheck/email_address: root * logcheck/rewrite-note:
