Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install
(in 'squeeze'), remove (but not purge), distupgrade to 'wheezy',
and install again.
Before the second installation the package is in config-files-remaining
state. The configuration is remaining from the last version that was
successfully configured - which is from the previous release.

Like a plain failure on initial install this makes the package too buggy
for a release, thus the severity.

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

  Setting up syslog-ng-core (3.3.4.dfsg-2) ...
  Installing new version of config file /etc/default/syslog-ng ...
  Installing new version of config file /etc/init.d/syslog-ng ...
  
  Configuration file `/etc/logrotate.d/syslog-ng'
   ==> Deleted (by you or by a script) since installation.
   ==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
     What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are:
      Y or I  : install the package maintainer's version
      N or O  : keep your currently-installed version
        D     : show the differences between the versions
        Z     : start a shell to examine the situation
   The default action is to keep your current version.
  *** syslog-ng (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ? dpkg: error processing 
syslog-ng-core (--configure):
   EOF on stdin at conffile prompt


cheers,

Andreas
