Package: syslog-ng
Version: 3.19.1-5
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

The Debian syslog-ng.conf contains the following:

  # Virtual console.
  #
  destination d_console_all { file(`tty10`); };

Normally this works fine.  However, under LXC there are only a small
number of tty devices available.  Therefore, syslog-ng will write to
a standard file /dev/tty10 instead of the block device.  Further, LXC
by default allocates a relatively small amount of partition space to
/dev, approximately 500 KB, so /dev/tty10 will quickly grow to consume
all available /dev space rendering syslog-ng from logging at all once
that situation arises.

This issue was detailed in a blog post here:

  
<https://www.claudiokuenzler.com/blog/988/syslog-ng-lxc-container-no-space-left-on-device-dev>

The blog post author suggested changing tty10 to tty2, but the syslog-ng
upstream maintainer suggested just removing tty10 config altogether:

  <https://lists.balabit.hu/pipermail/syslog-ng/2021-February/026182.html>

This configuration statement appears to have introduced as far back as
3.1.0-1:

  syslog-ng (3.1.0-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
  * Fix path of syslog logfile (closes: #575722) and use tty10
    instead of vc/10 to log on console.
