The standard default is info so that there is a reasonable amount of information included in bug reports. It's just a default, and you can trivially override it on your machines as you see fit if it doesn't work for you. -- Kind regards, Luca Boccassi signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
Bug#1066076: Current loglevel in system.conf is too verbose by default
Package: systemd Version: 255.4-1 Severity: minor File: /etc/systemd/system.conf X-Debbugs-Cc: tombrown9...@gmail.com Dear Maintainer, Current kernel message verbosity during Debian boot significantly hampers the ability to identify critical system alerts, with important messages quickly lost in the noise. This situation presents challenges for both new and experienced users; newcomers may find the volume of information daunting and misinterpret its importance, while seasoned users may struggle to quickly pinpoint vital warnings or errors. To address these concerns, it is proposed that the default kernel log level be set to "Warning." This adjustment will streamline the boot process, making critical messages more visible and less likely to be overlooked. Such a change not only aids in diagnosing and troubleshooting by highlighting essential alerts but also enhances the boot experience for all users by focusing on the most pertinent information.
