[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#482020: Wish for logcheck whitelists

[Trent W. Buck]

Package: avahi-daemon
Severity: wishlist

I use logcheck to look through syslog data for important entries.  It
does this by telling me about all entries that it doesn't recognize as
unimportant.

Currently, avahi-daemon provides no
/etc/logcheck/*.d.ignore/avahi-daemon files, so logcheck thinks that
*all* avahi-daemon log entries are important.  It generates an awful
lot of them, and probably most of them don't require an admin to take
action.

I'd write these files myself and include them in this BTS, but I'm not
sufficiently familiar with avahi-daemon to know what is ignorable.  As
a workaround I will probably just purge avahi-daemon from workstations
on my network.
