ANSI escape codes in logs

get-help

Is this only a problem on my two installations? I cannot find any discussions about this, but my /var/log/messages output from kumo has ANSI escape codes as plain text. e.g.:

Aug 20 23:32:08 mta kumod[1486540]: #033[2m2024-08-20T23:32:08.509135Z#033[0m #033[32m INFO#033[0m logging-0 #033[2mkumo_server_runtime#033[0m#033[2m:#033[0m logging pool starting with 1 threads.

Is there a way to either display these as colours or not have these characters output at all?

Thanks in advance

the upstream tracing-subscriber crate defaults to always using ansi escapes. It is possible to make a code change to expose an option and an environment variable to control this, but that isn’t present in the code today.
