** Description changed:
- Binary package hint: logcheck-database
+ IMPACT: up-to one logcheck email generated every hour, makes logcheck a
+ spam source unless config is fixed locally
- The logcheck databse for dnsmasq contains amongst others the following rule:
- ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ dnsmasq\[[[:digit:]]+\]:
(DHCPDISCOVER|DHCPOFFER|DHCPREQUEST|DHCPACK|DHCPRELEASE|DHCPINFORM|BOOTP)\([[:alnum:]]+\)
[ :[:alnum:]._-]+$
+ PROPOSED FIX: fix regular expression to allow for "dnsmasq-dhcp" and not
+ only "dnsmasq" in logs
- For ubuntu 9.10 dnsmasq has been changed into dnsmasq-dhcp
+ TESTCASE: install logcheck and libvirt, create a VM using libvirt's
+ virbr0 bridge, start the vm, notice that it causes logcheck emails to be
+ generated on every DHCP lease renewal
- hence the rule needs to be changed into
- ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ dnsmasq-dhcp\[[[:digit:]]+\]:
(DHCPDISCOVER|DHCPOFFER|DHCPREQUEST|DHCPACK|DHCPRELEASE|DHCPINFORM|BOOTP)\([[:alnum:]]+\)
[ :[:alnum:]._-]+$

- ProblemType: Bug
- Architecture: amd64
- Date: Fri Jan 15 23:06:46 2010
- Dependencies:
-
- DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10
- Package: logcheck-database 1.2.69
- PackageArchitecture: all
- ProcEnviron:
- LC_MONETARY=nl_NL.utf8
- SHELL=/bin/bash
- LANG=en_US.UTF-8
- LC_CTYPE=nl_NL.utf8
- LC_TIME=nl_NL.utf8
- ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.31-16.53-server
- SourcePackage: logcheck
- Uname: Linux 2.6.31-16-server x86_64
+ REGRESSION POTENTIAL: low overall; conffile prompt while upgrading if
+ any conffiles need to be merged; regular expression might also still be
+ incomplete/incorrect after update, but that wouldn't really be a
+ regression
