Package: ccze
Version: 0.2.1-2
Severity: important

ccze, when run with default options, tries to resolve user and group
names in logs through name services.

When using nslcd, this breaks and causes an endless lookup loop,
generating messages like:

Oct 15 16:03:06 terra nslcd[4239]: [b48249] 
<passwd="passwd="passwd="passwd="passwd=> request denied by validnames option

What happened here is that ccze used the <passwd... part for another
user lookup, triggering another message, triggering another lookup, ...

The nslcd log output should be parsed more carefully.

Currently, it seems to be best to run ccze with -o nolookups.
