Source: liblognorm Version: 1.1.2-1.1 Severity: important Tags: patch Hi Pierre!
The latest rsyslog version in Debian is quite outdated. The reason is, that newer versions require libfastjson instead of json-c. I've already packages libfastjson, and it is available in unstable and testing [1]. Before I can switch rsyslog over to use libfastjson, I need a newer version of liblognorm as well, which as been compiled against libfastjson. I've been working with rsyslog/liblognorm upstream and the latest versio 2.0.1 should be ok. Please consider packaging that version. To test newer rsyslog versions, I've already updated liblognorm locally and pushed my work to [2]. Feel free to base your update on that. Since the library had a soname bump which means going through the NEW queue, I decided to introduce a new binary package for the lognormalizer tool to fix #753510. The git log should be self-explanatory. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. As the package didn't have a public (Git) repository, I've created a private on based on the last NMU using git-buildpackage [2].
