Hi, I can, but I would prefer if it were done automatically. I think that it is a general principle that applies to many of our activities in Debian. Sbuild's log filtering function, because it exists, saves me the time from re-implementing a similar function from scratch, and from maintaining and sharing a script. Because filtering is by default enabled in sbuild, the logs of the packages that I upload to the archive, that I either send to the packaging team's list or commit in the package's git repository, are filtered logs. I have not reveived any complain that filtration was harmful, and I feel that this feature has been benefical to me; it assisted me to spot key differences between builds. I think that the benefits would be greater if the archive rebuilds were also filtering logs, since they use a sbuild version that has that capacity. But all of this can be said to be a matter of preference, so how to chose between people's preferences ? I propose the following: If log filtering does not make somebody's work harder, I humbly request that it is enabled.
