I fear that I break my system when I change the things that were done by gentoo, but I am willing to compile syslog-ng by hand on one of my production servers.

So when I download syslog-ng, compile it and install it in /usr/local/, then stop the original gentoo syslog-ng, and start my /usr/local/ copy of syslog-ng,
will that help?

When I download the source what do I have to do to substract the diff file from the source?

Regards,
