Who decides what's informative?!
Have looked at the following to try to get the results that you are
looking for (from the man page)?
/etc/logcheck/logcheck.conf is the main configuration file.
/etc/logcheck/logcheck.logfiles is the list of files to monitor.
/usr/share/doc/logcheck-database/README.logcheck-database.gz for hints
on how to write, test and maintain rules.
