Bug#498992: ntp: Outdated logcheck file: msg#08650 debian-bugs-dist

Package: ntp
Version: 1:4.2.4p6+dfsg-2
Severity: normal

This is just to say that I'm getting this problem too, and also find it pretty
annoying.

This bug has been there for almost a year!
Maybe this is because it's not entirely clear what's the best fix: update the
logcheck rules or tweak ntpd itself. Still that does not explain the first 5+
months of inactivity.

So in the interest of actually serving the Debian users, I propose the
following course of action:
* Update the logcheck rule and release and updated package in the coming weeks.
* In parallel, contact upstream and suggest lowering the priority of the
message.
* If upstream does lower the priority, then once that code makes it to Debian,
remove the logcheck rule.
