Package: logcheck
Version: 1.2.54
Severity: normal

hello,

seems that somehow logcheck fails to filter out some lines, eg i get this 
warning:

Security Events
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
daemon.info: Dec  7 21:13:47 smartd[9668]: Device: /dev/hdb, SMART Prefailure Attribute: 1 Raw_Read_Error_Rate changed from 100 to 99
daemon.info: Dec  7 21:43:48 smartd[9668]: Device: /dev/hdb, SMART Prefailure Attribute: 1 Raw_Read_Error_Rate changed from 99 to 100

however:

# grep -h '21:13:4[78]' /var/log/socklog/main/* 
Dec  7 21:13:47 smartd[9668]: Device: /dev/hdb, SMART Prefailure Attribute: 1 Raw_Read_Error_Rate changed from 100 to 99
Dec  7 21:13:47 smartd[9668]: Device: /dev/hdb, SMART Usage Attribute: 190 Temperature_Celsius changed from 58 to 59
Dec  7 21:13:47 smartd[9668]: Device: /dev/hdb, SMART Usage Attribute: 194 Temperature_Celsius changed from 42 to 41
Dec  7 21:13:47 smartd[9668]: Device: /dev/hdb, SMART Usage Attribute: 195 Hardware_ECC_Recovered changed from 72 to 73

and:

# grep -h '21:13:4[78]' /var/log/socklog/main/* | egrep -v -f /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/smartd

so the patterns in /etc.../smartd do match and logcheck run should end up 
with no such lines.

# dpkg -s logcheck logtail lockfile-progs socklog-run|grep ^Vers
