logging to syslog does not distinct between errors notice and warning.

[Rene]

Hi

If I run puppetd on a client with -l console I see things like:
...
warning: //Node[default]/packages/
notice: ...
err: ...
...

Here puppet makes a distinction between errors, notice and warning.

But it I run puppet without the -l option, I see the entries in /var/
log/messages. But there puppet makes no distiction between errors,
warnings etc....:

Nov 19 10:26:12 puppetd[28676]: Starting catalog run
Nov 19 10:26:24 puppetd[28676]: (//Node[default]...Failed

In my optinion it should be:
Nov 19 10:26:24 puppetd[28676]: err: (//Node[default]...Failed
or something similar.

Is this a bug?

BR,
Rene

Using Puppet 2.6.2,  2.7.1 and 2.7.11, I have the severity reported to syslog as expected.

It's not a bug in puppet; it's your syslog configuration not reporting severity in /var/log/messages
