Hello,

I just updated the syslog-ng packages in my openSUSE Build Service home 
project. As not all dependencies are part of SLES or openSUSE, it is 
recommended to add repositories by "zypper ar http://to/repo reponame" 
and install from there as my repositories carry all necessary 
dependencies as well.

https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:czanik:syslog-ng33 has 
syslog-ng 3.3.11 and will be removed as soon as openSUSE 12.2 is EoL 
(early next year)

https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:czanik:syslog-ng34 has 
syslog-ng 3.4.5 and will stay as long as openSUSE 12.3 is supported (Q3 
next year) This version will be published as an update for both openSUSE 
12.3 and 13.1 in the coming weeks (as it's not a security update, review 
is slower by the maintenance team)

https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:czanik:syslog-ng35 has 
syslog-ng 3.5.1. This version adds redis support. Due to an error in the 
release process, manual pages are missing, but documentation is 
available at the usual location: 
http://www.balabit.com/sites/default/files/documents/syslog-ng-ose-3.5-guides/en/syslog-ng-ose-v3.5-guide-admin/html-single/index.html

As these are not official Balabit or SuSE packages, please contact me, 
if you run into any troubles!

Bye,
