Current stable syslog-ng + libol
Hey, (Thank you for syslog-ng.) I'd like to build the current stable version of syslog-ng, I've seen syslog-ng-1.4.17 on the balabit's website (following the "stable" link) and built with libol-0.2.24 (following INSTALL's instructions). However, Freshmeat has 1.5 as stable and 1.9 as dev, Debian has 1.5 as stable, 1.6 in testing and unstable, ... What versions are considered "stable"? I particularly need template() which doesn't fit in the conf -- neither does log_msg_size() -- right now. While we're at it, what is the appropriate version of libol for this syslog-ng? Regards, -- Loïc Minier <lool@dooz.org>

I just upgraded to syslog-ng-1.5.26 and libol-0.3.13. template() works in file(), but not in program() nor in usertty(). Any hope to see this fixed/backported in a later 1.5.x release? Is there a syslog-ng BTS? Regards, -- Loïc Minier <lool@dooz.org>

1.6.2 should be fine. -- Bazsi PGP info: KeyID 9AF8D0A9 Fingerprint CD27 CFB0 802C 0944 9CFD 804E C82C 8EB1

It worked indeed! However, I leave here some notes for Googlers: - Sun Door detection did not work in 1.6 (but worked fine in 1.4 and 1.5), it seems to work with --enable-sun-door for configure; - GNU m4 version 1.4 or above is required: I got one from SunFreeware.com, and then ran "M4=/usr/local/bin/m4 make" instead of make; - I kept libol-0.3.13 which seems to be the latest. Sorry for not coming back sooner, thanks for your time. -- Loïc Minier <lool@dooz.org>
