[syslog-ng] patterndb context-timeout problem

[Zoltán Pallagi]

Hi,

I've found a problem in handling context-timeout in a special case.

If context-timeout=10 (10 sec) and I am using a trigger, where 
trigger="timeout", it can happen that the timeout won't expire:

I sent the following two messages to syslog-ng before expiring timeout 
(but the difference between the two timestamp is bigger than the timeout 
value):

"<38>1990-01-01T14:45:25 customhostname program6[1234]: program6 
testmessage"
"<38>1990-01-01T14:55:25 customhostname program6[1234]: program6 
testmessage"

I receive the timeout message immediately, when the second message 
arrives (it's ok), but there is no timeout for the second message.
