Severity: normal

Since I've upgraded my servers to sarge, I'm getting mail every hour for
stuff that was duly included in /etc/logcheck/logcheck.ignore.  Turns
out that sarge's version no longer reads that file.

If this was a conscious decision, then there should be some warning
about this when upgrading (via debconf of NEWS.Debian).  Also, the
documentation should suggest a location for local rules.

there is a debconf note logcheck/changes for that change:
it gets displayed at debconf level medium.
you probably choose to ignore that level.

no, we wont set it higher as we don't want to annoy every upgrader.
closing as we didn't get further complaints.
