Package: fail2ban Version: 0.6.1-10 Severity: minor I got this:
lapse:~# /etc/init.d/fail2ban start #[219] Starting authentication failure monitor: fail2ban2006-08-10 18:26:46,392 WARNING: No 'locale' defined in 'DEFAULT'. Using default one: '''' So I tried to figure out what a 'locale' is in the fail2ban.conf(5) manpage, which says "Please look at the file itself" Ok... # grep -c locale /etc/fail2ban.conf 0 This is because I chose to keep the file instead of upgrading it. # grep -c /usr/share/doc/fail2ban/* 0 # zgrep -c /usr/share/doc/fail2ban/* 2 Aha. Well, I should not have to go to the changelog to find out how to set 'locale'. In fact, it does not even tell me. Please provide a proper fail2ban.conf manpage, and even if it duplicates the configuration file comments. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (750, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (250, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages fail2ban depends on: ii iptables 1.3.3-2 Linux kernel 2.4+ iptables adminis ii lsb-base 3.1-12 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip ii python 2.3.5-11 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-central 0.5.4 register and build utility for Pyt fail2ban recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- Please do not send copies of list mail to me; I read the list! .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer and author: http://debiansystem.info `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system
