Package: syslog-ng Version: 2.0.0-1 http://www.balabit.com/dl/html/syslog-ng-admin-guide_en.html/ch08s01.html#sourcecommonopts
declares a couple of options, which have been previously available as global options or only as local option for some sources (e.g. log_prefix has been available for the file()-source only). http://osdir.com/ml/syslog-ng/2005-06/msg00138.html also verifies this reading, that such log_prefix became a general source-specific option in syslog-ng 1.9.x, available to all source drivers. However, a configuration like this: source s_chroot{ unix-stream("/home/jail1/dev/log" log_prefix("jail1: ")); }; is rejected by syslog-ng with the error message "syntax error at 91" (use "syslog-ng -s" to verify the config). To resolve this issue for me, I've recompiled the source by fetching http://www.balabit.com/downloads/files/syslog-ng/sources/stable/src/syslog-ng-2.0.5.tar.gz, installing the depency packages (devscripts debhelper libevtlog-dev libnet1-dev libglib2.0-dev pkg-config) from etch and recompiled the package by running "dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc" on the source before installing it using "dpkg -i ../syslog-ng_2.0.5_i386.deb". The recompiled package works without this issue. I didn't find any update on this in the upstream changelog or NEWS-file, so maybe this issue only shows up on Debian boxes (or has been silently fixed in a release later than 2.0.0). I'm using Debian GNU/Linux 4.0, kernel 2.6.22.4 and libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
