New submission from Alexander Dietz <alexander.di...@epfl.ch>:

Using python 3.8.10 and the documentation 
https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/logging.html it seems that either the 
documentation is incorrect/unclear, or that the logging module does not work as 
described. 

Reading on the Logger Object and the setLevel method I created the attached 
python code, which does not work as expected. As I set the level to "DEBUG", 
and the documentation clearly says " Logging messages which are less severe 
than level will be ignored". But having set the level to DEBUG, even the more 
"severe" info message is ignored. That is clearly contradicting the 
documentation!
