Yeah, no reason I know of why it must be in .../systemd

The reason I had suggested .../systemd was just that I noticed that on my system
at least, all systemd filter rules are in /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/systemd

So I suppose I wrongly just simply assumed the logcheck convention was to
put filters for all systemd messages in that file.

I don’t otherwise know what conventions are used by package maintainers for
deciding what filenames to put logcheck filters in, but intuitively I guess
it’d seem to make the most sense to use the same name as whatever
package the filters are specific too.

In other words, yeah, .../gpg-agent :)
