<div style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Thanks for the reply, it's only reported once per spawned process and what you say makes perfect sense in this light. A configuration toggle or environment variable also seems like a good idea, but I'm sure I or we can also live with the message being reported once per process as it currently is... looking forward to the stable release & thanks for everything!</div><div style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">VH</div>

Something similar was discussed about NUT daemon banner and a few other lines emitted at startup, which some people see as important post-mortem tool when inspecting logs or console dumps, and others treat as noise ("unless there's an error, I want to see nothing") - and frankly both stances have their merits for different audiences.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Jim Klimov<br></div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div class="gmail_attr" dir="ltr">On Sun, Oct 29, 2023 at 2:45 PM Vojtěch Hurčík via Nut-upsuser <<a href="mailto:nut-upsuser@alioth-lists.debian.net" rel="noreferrer nofollow noopener" target="_blank">nut-upsuser@alioth-lists.debian.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex" class="gmail_quote"><div>Hello friends!</div><div style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><br></div><div style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">With the upcoming NUT release there is one thing I would like to ask:</div><div style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><ul><li style="list-style-type:disc"><pre><span>no notification tech defined, will not spam more about</span></pre></li></ul><div>I am repeatedly getting these messages in my <i>syslog</i> more recently because I do not have <i>systemd</i> available to me on my distribution and also do not want to use it.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Maybe the debug level for such messages could be raised to 1 instead, as they still seem a bit too spammy for something us, who don't use the <i>systemd</i>, already know.
