Logwatch does not report fail2ban on Debian 12
On Debian 10 and 11 hosts the e-mail logwatch generates has section like
this:
--------------------- fail2ban-messages Begin ------------------------
Banned services with Fail2Ban: Bans:Unbans
postfix-sasl: [ 3:3 ]
recidive: [ 88:155]
sshd: [296:296]
---------------------- fail2ban-messages End -------------------------
On Debian 12, that section does not appear.
I have compared settings between hosts, I can not see difference. I
tried to seem if fail2ban log format has changed, but they look the same
to me. Troubleshooting on the Debian 12 host with
# logwatch --debug High --service fail2ban
shows logfile with the fail2ban info is read and the filter finds Ban,
Unban etc. lines. With --debug High the resulting e-mail did have
fail2ban-messages section, but still not the summary lines with numbers
of Bans:Unbans.
Is this a known issue, some configuration needs adjustment?
My Debian 12 host is NOT upgraded from Debian 11, it is a fresh install.
I did read Debian 12 Release notes, but can not find it mentioning
logwatch or fail2ban.
