Logcheck devel - Jun 2009 - Bug#531596: logcheck: Doesn't ignore cron-apt Fetched lines

Package: logcheck
Version: 1.2.69
Severity: normal

Lines from cron-apt such as this are not ignored.

  Jun  2 08:31:42 joseki cron-apt: Fetched 20.9MB in 2min25s (143kB/s)

There is a logcheck rule for cron-apt that appears is trying to match
this line.  It fails to match.

  ^\w{3} [ :[:digit:]]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ cron-apt: Fetched [[:digit:].]+[kM]?B
in ([[:digit:]]+m)?[[:digit:]]+s \([[:digit:].]+[kM]?B/s\)$

Here is a fix for the rule to match that line.

  ^\w{3} [ :[:digit:]]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ cron-apt: Fetched [[:digit:].]+[kM]?B
in ([[:digit:]]+min)?[[:digit:]]+s \([[:digit:].]+[kM]?B/s\)$

Thanks for your report.  I've adapted your rule to still match etch's
apt, as well as 0.7.21 (which added yet another change).  This should be
included in logcheck 1.3.4.
