Package: logcheck
Version: 1.3.13
Severity: normal


Various files under ignore.d.* use "[0-9.]{7,15}" to match an IPv4
address, e.g., a connection to rsyncd. However, this does not match
IPv6 addresses, causing spurious reports.

A better regexp might be something like: ([0-9.]{7,15}|[0-9a-f:]{2,39})

A year later closing, as there isnt enough details in this bug to make
any changes. If there are any rules that need updating to ip6 please
open a new bug saying which lines in which files need to be changed
