I just noticed that we are using sysklogd as the default syslog.
meta/recipes-extended/packagegroups/packagegroup-core-full-cmdline.bb:VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_syslog
?= "sysklogd"
sysklogd has stopped development for about 4 years, and as far as I can see,
nobody is maintaining it.
Is there some specific reason why we want to keep it as the default syslog
for our reference images? small size?
You are welcome to improve this. Quite often the answer to such
questions is 'because no one is aware of the situation'.

In case someone is also interested in this topic, I'll add some more
information here.
rsyslog is GPLv3 and syslog-ng uses a very different configuration style
from traditional sysklogd.
So I guess I'll just leave things as they are now.
Best Regards,
