Package: watchdog
Version: 5.6-1
Severity: normal
I was configuring watchdog for my system, and was getting strange complaints
about invalid lines in the config file. After a little investigation, I
discovered that the config parser has a default maximum line length of 80.
Two observations:
1) This seems foolishly short
2) If a line is encountered that is too long, it should report that as a
specific error, and not try to parse the rest of the line as if it were a
new line.
