[Logcheck-devel] Bug#298291: logcheck-database: Printer out-of-paper reported

[Markus Peuhkuri]

Package: logcheck-database
Version: 1.2.34
Severity: minor


I have parallel port attached printer and kernel reports whenever
printer is out of paper:

Mar  6 12:38:50 host kernel: lp0 out of paper

However, this is not a situation that should be reported by default
(IMHO) by logcheck sending report email.  Thus I propose adding
following line to ignore.d.workstation/logcheck (possibly to .server
too):

^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ kernel: lp\d out of paper

I get a lot of those because I have old HP Laserjet5L with paper feed
problems...
