When upgrading you get the chance to install the new config file, keep
your old or manually merge them, so the changes you make can still
persist. But indeed: making a local file seems like a good tip. I'll
do that.

Ah, I must have overlooked that. You are right: the cyrus event is
actually a Security Event. I'll put a line in
violations.ignore.d/local now and see what happens.

I'll report the result later.
