[syslog-ng] Errors compiling syslog-ng from source on Centos 5.2

Hi Ezra,

Below message indicates:

messages.h:28:20: error: evtlog.h: No such file or directory

It is not able to find evtlog.h header file in specified location (
EVTLOG_CFLAGS=/usr/local/eventlog/include). Check for evtloh.h file 
location and also modify your configuration option as:

./configure EVTLOG_CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/eventlog/include/eventlog" 
EVTLOG_LIBS="-L/usr/local/eventlog/lib"

Alternate option:
You can define variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/eventlog/lib/pkgconfig 
and do ./configure residing in syslog-ng-2.1.1 directory followed by 
'make' ... should work fine :)

[syslog-ng] Errors compiling syslog-ng from source on Centos 5.2






All:
       I'm having problems installing syslog-ng-2.1.1 from source on 
Centos 5.2.  I installed eventlog successfully.  Eventlog is located at 
/usr/local/eventlog.  My configure script is below.  Note, make is 
failing.  The output is below.

./configure EVTLOG_CFLAGS=/usr/local/eventlog/include 
EVTLOG_LIBS=/usr/local/eventlog/lib.
