Public bug reported:

Log level is permanently set to "debug" and smokeping-prober floods logs
with every ICMP packet it receives:

ip_addr=x.x.x.2 bytes_received=32 icmp_seq=15 time=141.583454ms ttl=63

I tried to set log level to info (which should be the default) and error
- no difference (ps shows the command line option is present).

I checked the upstream version in the container and the package from
Ubuntu 24.04 - the problem is not present in those versions, it's only
in Ubuntu 22.04. Unfortunately I can't upgrade this server now.

Possibly related: while searching the web, I found Debian bug #1010054
for another Prometheus exporter, but someone mentions similar log in
Smokeping and explains: "the log level is not set correctly if the
exporter still uses go-kit/kit/log (instead of the newer go-kit/log) and
is built with prometheus/common v0.26.0 or later."
