These are releases from many years ago, so I had to check the release notes. Normally there are no breaking changes, and we are careful about backwards compatibility. I could not find anything obvious in the release notes, so I would not expect any issues upgrading.
However, as always, testing with production logs is still recommended.<br>
<br>
If you are upgrading from one point release to another one, I assume that you use my Copr packages. The versioned repositories are provided for convenience. Larger organizations have problems with the rolling release model, and it makes staying on a fixed syslog-ng
release possible. Also, I do not have any influence on how packages are signed, that is something internal to Copr. Normally only the latest syslog-ng Copr repo is actively receiving fixes (syslog-ng48 as of right now). However, we might experiment a bit here,
I put this on my ToDo list.</div>
