Dear syslog-ng users, This is the 127th issue of syslog-ng Insider, a monthly newsletter that brings you syslog-ng-related news. NEWS A syslog-ng container image based on Alpine Linux ------------------------------------------------- Recently, someone suggested I should check out Alpine Linux and prepare a syslog-ng container image based on it. While not supported by the syslog-ng project, an Alpine-based syslog-ng container image already exist as part of the Linuxserver project. https://www.syslog-ng.com/community/b/blog/posts/a-syslog-ng-container-imag… Call for testing: syslog-ng in openSUSE Leap 16.0 ------------------------------------------------- Last week, I submitted syslog-ng to openSUSE Leap 16.0. While the distro is still in a pre-alpha stage, everything already works for me as expected. Well, except for syslog-ng, where I found a number of smaller problems. As such, this blog is a call for testing, both for syslog-ng on openSUSE Leap 16.0 and also for the distribution itself.https://www.syslog-ng.com/community/b/blog/posts/call-for-testing-sy… Experimental syslog-ng container image based on Alma Linux ---------------------------------------------------------- The official syslog-ng container image is based on Debian Stable. However, we’ve been getting requests for an RPM-based image for many years. So, I made an initial version available based on Alma Linux and now I need your feedback about it! https://www.syslog-ng.com/community/b/blog/posts/experimental-syslog-ng-con… WEBINARS * New webinar: “Performance tuning for syslog-ng deployments”. You can register for it at https://www.syslog-ng.com/event/performance-tuning-for-syslog-ng-deployment… * You can learn about upcoming webinars and browse recordings of past webinars at https://www.syslog-ng.com/events/ Your feedback and news, or tips about the next issue are welcome.

Creation of manual pages
by Generic Secure-Logging 03 Jan '25

03 Jan '25

syslog-ng features manual pages for the Unix manual system in the doc/ subdirectory. However, these pages are not created when configuring, building and installing syslog-ng with CMake. The autotools config system creates a Makefile with a target manpages when calling configure with the option --enable-manpages. However, the autotools build is broken. The call of make manpages results in the following error ./configure: line 7001: syntax error near unexpected token `newline' ./configure: line 7001: `yes:' make: *** [Makefile:13726: config.status] Error 2 Does anyone know how to create the manual pages in the current version?
