Bug Description

Binary package hint: logcheck-database

I keep getting these messages since the recent upgrade to feisty:

Should something like this be added to /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/network-manager

^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ NetworkManager: <information>\^IDHCP daemon state is now 3 (renew) for interface eth[0-9]$

I would agree, this seems appropriate. However, the rule should be:

^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ NetworkManager: <information>\^IDHCP daemon state is now 3 \(renew\) for interface eth[0-9]$

The parent poster's rule wouldn't work.

Add this in ignore.d.workstation too. ;-)
