Package: logcheck-database
Version: 1.2.51
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

ssh in etch now supports the gssapi-keyex authentication method, which
produces syslog messages like:

Nov 22 15:39:51 windlord sshd[30504]: Accepted gssapi-keyex for eagle from
171.66.157.13 port 2267 ssh2

Here's the obvious patch to filter these out.
