I would argue that RHEL 6 is old. The support life cycle for RHEL 6 is until 2020. In the enterprise environments, I can see RHEL 6 being used in production environments for the next three years. Of course, I can't imagine anyone running a git head snapshot build in a production environment.

Hi,

I built RHEL 6 RPM-s for syslog-ng 3.9.1 release now. It's available at https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/czanik/syslog-ng39epel6/

Please test it, as I don't have a RHEL 6 test environment any more.

I have no plans to make regular git head snapshot builds for RHEL 6, as it is old and does not have many users any more.

Bye,

Hi Peter,

We would like to have 3.9 RH6 RPM. Would it be possible to publish it?

As we don't have syslog-Ng for RedHat , I have configured  with rsyslog with no choice . It would be better if syslog-Ng built for redhat 7.

Hi,



Recently I started to create RPM packages from git HEAD. Obviously

this is not for production, but helps to check, if a problem reported

for 3.8.1 or earlier still exists.



It is available for openSUSE, Fedora, RHEL 7 and SLES 11/12.



I don't create RHEL 6 packages, as that would require maintaining a

third spec file and repo, but if there are too many people trying to

convince me, I can do it next year :)



And the good news is, that I learned right after publishing my blog,

that 3.8.2 is nearing and expected to arrive this year!
