Description

A bug was introduced during the 1.6.0 development cycle that causes log spam by enabling the failure detector on the leader after a configuration change. That causes a lot of harmless (and useless) log messages. We'll fix this before releasing 1.6.0 and we'll never have a release with this log spam bug.
