Executive summary: please let 1.2.53 through, I'll take
responsibility :)
I forgot to include the changelog in my last request:
http://packages.qa.debian.org/l/logcheck/news/20070116T063201Z.html
It's long, but I've only added filters, except for the last three
entries. 1.2.53 is definitely fit for a freeze exception.
* logcheck now chdir()s to /var/lib/logcheck before cleanup of the temporary
directory. This should hopefully fix some of the "Check temporary
directory" messages.
* Check for existence of home directory of the system account. If it points
to a non-existing directory, change it to /var/lib/logcheck. Also ignore
the corresponding log entry by usermod.
These two were necessary to prevent logcheck failures when it
encountered a problem and couldn't dump a temporary file because it
had no home directory.
* Modified the system account Gecos name to "logcheck system account".
And this one is just a cosmetic change over a previous version that
will only affect new installations.
Thanks,
