------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PACKAGE : syslog-ng VERSION : 3.4.6 SUMMARY : new stable release DATE : Nov 27, 2013 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DESCRIPTION: A new stable version of syslog-ng Open Source Edition (3.4.6) has been released. For latest fixes in the 3.4.x feature branch you are recommended to upgrade to this version. CHANGES: 3.4.6 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 16:21:47 +0100 This is the fifth bug-fix release for the 3.4.x series, with a number of significant fixes over the 3.4.5 release. Upgrading to this release is highly recommended. Bugfixes ======== * The system() source has been fixed on Solaris and HP-UX: it correctly recognises the system on Solaris, and uses /dev/log (and not /dev/pipe) on HP-UX. * The sun-streams() source has been fixed, it compiles and works again. * A very rare and short race condition has been fixed in the pipe() source and destination modules, which could leave the pipe available with elevated permissions for a short time. * The SQL, MongoDB and SMTP modules were fixed to not cause a segmentation fault when loaded before the socket module. * The syslog-format() module has been fixed to only set the PROGRAM to "kernel" if all of the previous conditions apply, and the message is a local message.
