OK, understood

OK one small very concrete thing I think would help would be if the package
added logcheck filters for messages the change has caused to now start
getting logged to syslog in the following form:

Feb 17 01:24:15 sideshowbarker systemd[1246]: Listening on GnuPG cryptographic agent and passphrase cache.
Feb 17 01:24:15 sideshowbarker systemd[1246]: Listening on GnuPG network certificate management daemon.
Feb 17 01:24:15 sideshowbarker systemd[1246]: Listening on GnuPG cryptographic agent and passphrase cache (restricted).
Feb 17 01:24:15 sideshowbarker systemd[1246]: Listening on GnuPG cryptographic agent (access for web browsers).
Feb 17 01:24:15 sideshowbarker systemd[1246]: Listening on GnuPG cryptographic agent (ssh-agent emulation).
Feb 17 01:24:16 sideshowbarker systemd[1246]: Closed GnuPG network certificate management daemon.
Feb 17 01:24:16 sideshowbarker systemd[1246]: Closed GnuPG cryptographic agent and passphrase cache.
Feb 17 01:24:16 sideshowbarker systemd[1246]: Closed GnuPG cryptographic agent and passphrase cache (restricted).
Feb 17 01:24:16 sideshowbarker systemd[1246]: Closed GnuPG cryptographic agent (ssh-agent emulation).
Feb 17 01:24:16 sideshowbarker systemd[1246]: Closed GnuPG cryptographic agent (access for web browsers).

Would it be possible for the package maintainers to add logcheck filters
for those? Should I file a separate bug to request that?
