[syslog-ng] syslog-ng 2.0.7 major problem

[wiskbroom at hotmail.com]

Must I still need to apply this patch if I am trying to compile syslog-ng-2.0.7+20080117?

Also, while on the subject of compiling, I am getting this error, pkg-config/eventlog related, when trying to compile this version.  

Incidentally, I've this was after building and installing the latest eventlog.

checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for GLIB... yes
checking for EVTLOG... no
configure: error: Cannot find eventlog version >= 0.2: is pkg-config in path?


I've seen some stuff on the list regarding this problem, but no fix which has helped.
My /usr/local/lib looks like this:

-rw-r--r--   1 root root  58328 Jan 17 08:30 libevtlog.a
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root root    822 Jan 17 08:30 libevtlog.la
