[syslog-ng]levtlog error udring compile

[Roberto Nibali]

Hello,

> -I/usr/local/include/eventlog 

This is for include files. You would need the LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" 
and you mustn't put it into the Makefile.

Ok, you need to make sure you have done the following steps (not verified):

$ tar zxvf eventlog...
$ cd eventlog*
$ ./configure
$ make
$ su
   ----> enter your root password
# make install
# ldconfig
# exit
$ cd ..
$ tar zxvf syslog-ng...
$ cd syslog-ng*
$ ./configure
   ----> in the end you should see a couple of lines regarding eventlog:
         EVTLOG_CFLAGS=...
         EVTLOG_LIBS=...
         The should locate your eventlog library and its header location
$ make
   ----> you should get your syslog-ng binary.

HTH and if not, I'll probably get to work on a SuSE system by tomorrow. 
Also maybe you could check if the libraries are really installed by 
invoking (as user or root)

     find /usr/lib /usr/local/lib -name "*ev*log*" 2>/dev/null
