Package: logcheck
Version: 1.3.24
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
From the changelog I gather that logcheck is now actively maintained
again. This is a test ballon bug report to see if this is the case.
If so, I would provide more input either as bug reports or directely.
The pattern for rsyslogd can be improved. Please add the following
line:
imuxsock: Acquired UNIX socket '/run/systemd/journal/syslog' \(fd 3\) from
systemd. \[v8.2206.0\]
You might want to generalize the fd (on my system it is always fd 3,
but I don't know if this is general) and possibly the version number;
ideally this would remain in sync to whatever is in testing.

i think that practice and theory have diverged here! or possibly this

The latest autopkgtest test for logcheck passed successfully [1], so I'm
inclined to close this bug report.
I haven't yet switched over to testing, so maybe the report is
outdated.
If the log check rules do need an update, they should be accompanied with a
corresponding autopkgtest.
I can provide patterns, when necessary.
As I don't use logcheck, I will have to rely on someone to contribute those
changes. Ideally in the form of a MR on salsa at
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/rsyslog
I'm happy to send patterns in bug reports, when applicable, using
reportbug(1). I use logcheck a lot, and tweak the rulse regularly. But
I'm not fluent at all in autopkgtest or creating merge requests.
Let's close this issue for now.
If there are changes required for the version in sid, then those changes
will need a corresponding update of the autopkgtest, otherwise I won't
apply them. The only other alternative I see is to drop the logcheck
rules from the rsyslog package and hand them over to the logcheck
maintainers.

Michael
