Hi all,

I see the following pop up in the syslog, over and over again:

	root at eunetworks-2:/etc/bird# tail -F /var/log/syslog | grep filters
	Feb 24 19:34:32 eunetworks-2 bird: filters, line 1360: ~ applied on unknown type pair
	Feb 24 19:34:32 eunetworks-2 bird: filters, line 1360: ~ applied on unknown type pair
	Feb 24 19:34:32 eunetworks-2 bird: filters, line 1360: ~ applied on unknown type pair
	Feb 24 19:34:32 eunetworks-2 bird: filters, line 1360: ~ applied on unknown type pair
	Feb 24 19:34:32 eunetworks-2 bird: filters, line 1360: ~ applied on unknown type pair

However, tracing down where the error comes from is not so trivial:

	root at eunetworks-2:/etc/bird# find /etc/bird -type f | xargs grep include  | wc -l
	302
	root at eunetworks-2:/etc/bird# du -sh /etc/bird
	48M    /etc/bird
	root at eunetworks-2:/etc/bird#

I have a glorious spaghetti spread over almost 50 megabytes of config.

Anyone got any idea why I'm seeing this warning, and how I can figure
out what BIRD considers 'line 1360'?

Kind regards,

Job
