Hello, I'm helping to upgrade syslog-ng to current version in major Linux distributions. I would like to ask, if you could update syslog-ng to version 3.1. I'm working on the openSUSE version of syslog-ng 3.1 ( http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/czanik:/branches:/Base:/System/openSUSE_Factory/src/ ), and it is also being upgraded in Debian ( http://packages.qa.debian.org/s/syslog-ng.html ) and Gentoo ( http://gentoo.linuxhowtos.org/portage/app-admin/syslog-ng ) and Mandriva ( http://sophie.zarb.org/viewrpm/b8182fa1eee109cc655a020a2cb62f5f ). For a complete list of changes, please see: http://www.balabit.com/downloads/files/syslog-ng/open-source-edition/3.0.5/changelog-en.txt http://www.balabit.com/downloads/files/syslog-ng/open-source-edition/3.1.0/changelog-en.txt Major changes from the packaging point of view: - addition of new utilities: /usr/bin/pdbtool /usr/sbin/syslog-ng-ctl - apparmor (or SElinux in case of Fedora) needs some extra permissions: /var/run/syslog-ng.ctl rw, /var/run/syslog-ng/additional-log-sockets.conf r, capability sys_tty_config, Version 3.0 also added SSL support among many other changes, but that can't be enabled on openSUSE (configure arg: --disable-ssl): syslog-ng is in /sbin, openssl libs are in /usr/lib, linking from /usr is not allowed in /, and SSL is not available statically for security reasons. As far as I can see (I have a Fedora 13 snapshot installed in vmware), Fedora has the same problem. Please let me know, if you need any additional help/information to get syslog-ng updated for Fedora.
