[Logcheck-devel] Bug#393938: does not ignore smartd warning mail messages

[Elmar Hoffmann]

Package: logcheck-database
Version: 1.2.48
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

logcheck does not ignore the messages smartd generates when sending
out a warning mail like these:

--8<---
Oct 16 11:57:08 stranger smartd[3788]: Sending warning via /usr/share/smartmontools/smartd-runner to root ...
Oct 16 11:57:09 stranger smartd[3788]: Warning via /usr/share/smartmontools/smartd-runner to root: successful
--8<---

The fact that a mail was sent is of course not very interesting when
you've already got that mail anyway. :)
The attached patch against current SVN adds 2 rules to
ignore.d.server/smartd to ignore these messages.
