Package: apt-listbugs Version: 0.1.40 Severity: minor Since I'm running bookworm, apt-listbugs started pestering me with emails that look like this:
Date: Wed, 01 Feb 2023 07:25:20 -0500 From: apt-listbugs timer <root@curie> To: r...@anarc.at Subject: prefclean output on curie /usr/libexec/apt-listbugs/prefclean: Paquets corrigés : breeze kactivitymanagerd ksshaskpass kwayland-integration polkit-kde-agent-1 That "Paquets corrigés" string there means "Fixed packages" in english. I've traced it down to /usr/libexec/apt-listbugs/aptcleanup, itself called from /usr/libexec/apt-listbugs/prefclean which specifically makes a point of explicitely writing an email if you're running under systemd. I'd love a way to turn that stuff off or, preferably, have it logged normally in syslog/journald. I don't need to be told when those things are fixed: I'm assuming apt-listbugs will do its job correctly unless otherwise noted. In other words, this is not a failure condition, it's actually a *success* condition, and I don't really need to be told about those. Could we make this a knob at least? It looks like aptcleanup looks at the apt preferences to that might be a good place, but prefclean is where the decision is actually mean on how to treat the aptclean output, so I'm not sure how best this could be done... -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers testing-debug APT policy: (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental'), (1, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.0.0-6-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=fr_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages apt-listbugs depends on: ii apt 2.5.5 ii ruby 1:3.1 ii ruby-debian 0.3.10+b8 ii ruby-gettext 3.3.3-2 ii ruby-soap4r 2.0.5-5 ii ruby-unicode 0.4.4.4-1+b5 ii ruby-xmlparser 0.7.3-4+b4 Versions of packages apt-listbugs recommends: ii ruby-httpclient 2.8.3+git20211122.4658227-1 Versions of packages apt-listbugs suggests: ii chromium [www-browser] 109.0.5414.119-1 ii firefox [www-browser] 109.0-1 ii lynx [www-browser] 2.9.0dev.12-1 ii reportbug 11.6.0 ii sensible-utils 0.0.17+nmu1 ii w3m [www-browser] 0.5.3+git20230121-1 ii xdg-utils 1.1.3-4.1 -- debconf-show failed
