Re: Is there a parser already written to output zypper.log entries in a nice format?

All,

I'm chasing problems in Thunderbird and wanted to parse zypper.log (yes I could use the rpmdb), and wanted to know if there was a parse already written or whether is just one for awk (and xzcat for the compressed files)?

zypper-log

awk and xzcat work fine, but if there is already a tool, I'd rather not reinvent another wheel.

For when installed, e.g., something ike:

2024-09-13 22:57:21 MozillaThunderbird-openpgp-librnp-115.15.0-1.1.x86_64 START 2024-09-13 22:57:21 MozillaThunderbird-openpgp-librnp-115.15.0-1.1.x86_64 END

No, zypper-log will not do it.
