Hello All,
I've just build the solaris package via solbuild/rules. When i was doing this i was wondering about a few things.
solbuild/rules isn't intended for generic usage, this file is used for our internal packaging which is used with the Zorp firewall on Solaris.
These is a nice init.d file in the solbuild directory. solbuild/syslog-ng.init.d After the build it cant be found in the package at all.
This init script is installed into the docdir, not into /etc.
When i copy the above mentioned init.d script it uses the config file /opt/syslog-ng/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf. Would /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.com a better location? I adapted the script for this now.
The package uses the /opt/syslog-ng prefix
Why is the package in stalled in /opt/syslog-ng in stead of /usr/local? By the way Sun uses /opt/sfw for gnu software. Why are to init.d packages available in the source, being solbuild/syslog-ng.init.d and contrib/init.d.solaris . The first one is realted to /opt/syslog-ng the second one to /usr/local .
As I mentioned solbuild/ is for BalaBit's environment, not for generic usage. -- Sandor Geller wildy@balabit.hu
