OK. As the only feedback I got was from Evan, I changed the SPEC file again, and CentOS/RHEL 8 uses now /etc/logrotate.d/syslog. Here is the summary:<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
<ul>
<li>RHEL/CentOS 7: /etc/logrotate.d/syslog is the same as for rsyslog and installed always</li><li>Fedora: /etc/logrotate.d/syslog-ng installed only if rsyslog is not installed</li><li>RHEL/CentOS 8: /etc/logrotate.d/syslog installed only if rsyslog is not installed<br>
</li></ul>
</div>

Tested on CentOS 7, CentOS 8 and Fedora 31, all seem to work. You can test it from
<a href="https://syslog-ng.com/blog/rpm-packages-from-syslog-ng-git-head/">https://syslog-ng.com/blog/rpm-packages-from-syslog-ng-git-head/</a> Any feedback is appreciated. Note, that the version says 3.28.1, but there was no official release yet.</div>

Fedora already changed to a name-based logrotate, so rsyslog has /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog. That's how the /etc/logrotate.d/syslog-ng naming was born.</div>

Not tested, but I just got the idea: for RHEL 8 keep the syslog-ng logroate file called as /etc/logrotate.d/syslog. It is fugly, another exception in the spec file. But it resolves your problem, and hopefully does not cause much problems for others.</div>

Personally I prefer to do the renaming to /etc/logrotate.d/syslog-ng as soon as possible (it will definitely be renamed with RHEL 9 in a few years), but what others think?</div>

The %config(no-replace) does not work for a file that does not yet<br>
exist. The difficulty here is that the logrotate file name is changing from<br>
<br>
/etc/logrotate.d/syslog<br>
<br>
to<br>
<br>
/etc/logrotate.d/syslog-ng<br>
<br>
With the current packaging I would have to "configure" all of my hosts<br>
with the new configuration file BEFORE the syslog-ng package gets<br>
updated. It's doable, but not desirable.<br>
