On an up to date 14.04 LTS system, I have what I guess is a mild remnant of the original bug?
syslog.1:Nov 23 14:45:36 vane whoopsie[1280]: message repeated 73 times: [ offline] syslog.1:Nov 24 08:33:59 vane whoopsie[1280]: online syslog.1:Nov 24 08:34:01 vane whoopsie[1280]: message repeated 3 times: [ online] syslog.1:Nov 24 08:56:55 vane whoopsie[1280]: offline syslog.1:Nov 24 20:09:37 vane whoopsie[1280]: message repeated 3 times: [ offline] syslog.1:Nov 24 20:09:37 vane whoopsie[1280]: online No more log messages as of now, Tue Nov 25 11:46:47 EST, which is nice. The 73 redundant "offline" messages would seem to satisfy the definition of "spamming syslog." I personally couldn't stomach reopening this bug myself though, at least not without the ability to also change importance to low. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1217407 Title: whoopsie spams the log with "online" messages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1217407/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
