[Logcheck-devel] Bug#258427: logcheck/logtail didn't detect tampering logfile

[maximilian attems]

Package: logcheck

wanted to work on #195935,
but found a less than funny issue, easy to reproduce:

* remove some lines in front of your logfile
* invoke logcheck

you'll get a big email with all not matching lines from that log.

not setting that to high priority because you are getting also the 
newer loglines. don't know if i find time that weekend.
wanted to document it anyways.
