Package: snmpd
Version: 5.7.3+dfsg-5
Followup-For: Bug #792623

Dear Maintainer,

It would be nice if the default setting in the systemd service file would
be less verbose !
Every time there is an upgrade (here upgrade to Debian 10)  my logs are cluttered with hundredth of messages such as :
.... Connection from UDP: [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] ...
Please use les verbose settings eg :
/usr/sbin/snmpd -LS 1 d -Lf /dev/null ...
instead of :
/usr/sbin/snmpd -Lsd -Lf /dev/null
Or, at least, do not spoil modified config files.

Regards

JP P
