logcheck 1.4.1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

logcheck (1.4.1) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Mathias Gibbens ]
  * Convert d/copyright to a machine-readable format
  * Mark logcheck-database as Multi-Arch: foreign
  * Remove useless `check` target from Makefile
  * Add lintian overrides for debian-news-entry-has-unknown-version, since
    dh_installchangelogs now trims ancient entries
  * Don't install the root-level CHANGES file, as this confuses
    dh_installchangelogs into thinking that file is the package's changelog

  [ Richard Lewis ]
  * logcheck-database:
     - Update rules for: su, sudo (Closes: #1024673), and
       systemd (Closes: #988389, #808429), login
  * logcheck:
     - Enable checking of the systemd journal by default (Closes: #1025719)
     - Do not change permissions of files inside /etc/logcheck, only
        change the directory itself (and restore on purge) (Closes: #1025897)
     - Ensure reports are made if all ignore.d.* directories are empty
     - Improve output when '-d' option is given
     - Ensure version (as returned by 'logcheck -v') is always in sync with the
       package version
     - Fix shellcheck issues in the main logcheck script
  *  logtail: remove d/logtail.prerm
  *  Add autopkgtests (incorporating and replacing the previous test suite)
     and have them run on each commit to salsa.debian.org (Closes: #1025895)
  *  Update or override lintian false-positives

logcheck: check the system log for unusual entries

 Logcheck analyses the system log for unuexpected entries that could
 indicate problems or security issues.
 .
 Log entries in the system log (produced by systemd-journald, rsyslog
 or another system-log-dameon) are checked against a customisable
 database of regular expressions (such as that provided by the
 logcheck-database package) to identify routine messages: anything
 that does not identified as routine is reported to the system
 administrator.
 .
 Logcheck was originally part of the Abacus Project of security tools,
 but has been rewritten.

logcheck-database: database of system log rules for logcheck

 This package brings a database of regular expressions for matching
 system log entries. It is part of Logcheck, but might be used by
 other log checkers.

logtail: Identify new lines added to the end of log files

 Each time logtail and logtail2 are run on a file they print lines
 added since the last run.
 .
 They can be used by log checkers, such as logcheck, to identify new
 entries in log files.
 .
 This package provides both logtail and logtail2. The latter is better
 suited to log files that may be rotated between runs: if logtail2
 finds that the inode of the file changed, it tries to find the file
 it was rotated from using customisable heuristics. If it finds the
 file, it will new find lines added to the old file as well as to the
 new file.
