Bug#794145: fills up logs with useless (?) "Invalid response packet from host ..."

2015-07-30 Thread Trent Lloyd 
I am going to make a patch for this (and a couple other similar messages) 
upstream today.  I intend to disable them unless in debug mode.

Bug#794145: fills up logs with useless (?) "Invalid response packet from host ..."

2015-07-30 Thread Yaroslav Halchenko 
Package: avahi-daemon
Version: 0.6.31-5
Severity: normal

wastes disk-spac, obscures monitoring, etc.  Manages to spit out about 10 a
second (that will be 36/hour! or more than a million in a work day!)

Meanwhile I guess I will just have to patch it manually
