severity 327029 wishlist tag 327029 + wontfix thanks While a read-only /dev is perfectly legitimate, it is by no means the default configuration. syslog-ng could only work with read-only /dev if /dev/log was moved elsewhere - which would be a policy/fhs/whatever decision, NOT a syslog-ng decision.
Until then, users who do set up a read-only /dev, and deviate from the default setup in an incompatible way, are expected to be able to move /dev/log to a writable mountpoint, and update their syslog-ng configuration aswell. Until the system default is an r/w /dev, this issue is not a problem in the default configuration, but a problem with the user not updating their config to match the rest of their system-voodoo. -- |8] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
