[Logcheck-devel] Bug#428428: patch for cron ignore rule

[Jason Martens]

Package: logcheck
Version: 1.2.54
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

On my system, this ignore rule needs /usr/bin/ in front of the cron command, or the rule fails to match.

hostname:/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server# diff cron cron.old
1c1
< ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ (/usr/bin/)?crontab\[[0-9]+\]: \([[:alnum:]-]+\) LIST \([[:alnum:]-]+\)$

> ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ crontab\[[0-9]+\]: \([[:alnum:]-]+\) LIST \([[:alnum:]-]+\)$
