------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PACKAGE : syslog-ng VERSION : 2.1beta2 SUMMARY : new stable release DATE : Jun 30, 2008 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DESCRIPTION: A new stable version of syslog-ng Open Source Edition (2.1beta2) has been released. For latest fixes in the 2.1.x branch you are recommended to upgrade to this version. CHANGES: 2.1beta2 Fri, 13 Jun 2008 14:37:08 +0200 Bugfixes: * Create /var/lib/syslog-ng directory from RPM packages. * Fixed a 100% CPU usage problem triggered by the pipe() destination. This is a regression in 2.1beta1 and does not affect earlier versions. * Removed test code that injected "Connection timed out" errors into local file writes. * Set the current directory to the root once syslog-ng daemonized itself. * Fixed the $PID macro to only extract information from the syslog message header and not from the message contents. Other changes: * Instead of using O_APPEND for file writes, add an lseek before writing which performs much better with the NFS client in BSD kernels. * Added support for suppressing duplicate messages. This feature was contributed by Chris Packham. * The default linking mode is changed to dynamic linking, as static linking is more difficult for users to cope with. Those who use NFS mounted /usr on machines where syslog-ng runs on will probably need to explicitly ask for the previous behaviour.
