woow nice catch, and good explanation. :)
tell me where your package is and i'll test it with dash.

he'll get that email and i'll downgrade.
ok cool so far, but inbetween we got a new grave bug and a new important
one:
#252597: logcheck: user logchecks mails should be delivered to root
submitter want's an alias for _really_ getting his mails,
as far as i can see from his posting he is using exim,
strange that he didn't receive emails with 1.2.20a??
can this be reproduced, the bug reporter is quite
responsive, maybe ask him if this bug was not due to prior
logcheck version?
#252661: logcheck-database contains file also in sendmail
this one is a sarge blocker for 1.2.21.
sorry i didn't knew that sendmail was also shipping its file.
i'll rename the file logcheck-sendmail in cvs as quick fix.
todd, what do you want to do?
1.2.21a with just that fix:
* Rename conflicting logcheck-sendmail rule in logcheck-sendmail_tmp
Sendmail ships aboves rule. (Closes: #252661, #252556)
or release current 1.2.22, hmm still no testing mode,
i'll leave it up to you and there is a testing package for 1.2.22
at the usual place with aboves fix (minus changelog entry = current head):
