I can't say that I am totally familiar with the rsyslog or its filters,
so I am relying upon the original author of the .conf file.  I read his
comment "# exclude all apcupsd info by default" above the filter as
defining its intent, and knowing that apcupsd is using local0 only I
interpreted "local0.none" as indicating that nothing from local0 would
go to /var/log/syslog.  If this is not what the filter is doing then it
needs to be corrected to do so.

The other filters on the system are those in
/etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf as installed on my distro.  I am unsure
if that was part of your package or if ubuntu created it.  Let me know
if you would need to see it.
