I think it's overkill to enable all verbose msgs just to see link state messages in my logs again when someone fiddles at the cabling in the colo hotel where he shouldn't - or did I mis-read the commit message ? I am totally agreeing that some changes (including my latest sk patch) my be far too verbose for many things in default configuration but enabling all to get one thing back - isn't that overkill ? The better question should perhaps be if it's best to put things under boot_verbose if they can also be printed at runtime ? -- Bjoern A. Zeeb bzeeb at Zabbadoz dot NeT
