The following warning in the log
Package silence Warning: There were 6 warning(s) and 0 error(s).
(silence) I've killed 5 warning(s) and 0 error(s).
is displayed in quickfix window by vimtex as
Package silence Warning: There were 6 warning(s) and 0 error(s). and 0 error(s).
it seems that in the attempt to join the multiline message, not only the leading (silence) and spaces were deleted, but everything until (and including) the warning(s).
