Package: logcheck
Version: 1.3.24
Severity: normal
Hi,
Since grep 3.8-1, the use of egrep is deprecated and generates a
warning. As logcheck does multiple calls to egrep, this generates a lot
of "egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E" lines in a cron
error mail each hour.
I guess simply replacing each occurence of "egrep" by "grep -E" in the
logcheck script would easily fix this.
Regards,
Tom
