[syslog-ng] Problem using Python Parser

[Ronald Fenner]

When I try to load my config with a python parser in it I'm getting this error message:
Starting /opt/syslog-ng/sbin/syslog-ng: [2017-12-29T23:00:05.813945] Error loading Python module; module='_syslogng', exception='exceptions.ImportError: No module named _syslogng'
[2017-12-29T23:00:05.814066] Error looking Python parser class; parser='p_php_fpm', class='PhpFpmParser', exception='None'
[2017-12-29T23:00:05.814116] Error initializing message pipeline; plugin name='python', location='/opt/syslog-ng/etc/syslog-ng.conf:52:20'

I build syslog-ng from source with the python options. Here is the -V output
syslog-ng 3 (3.11.1)
Installer-Version: 3.11.1

Enable-GProf: off
Enable-Memtrace: off
Enable-IPv6: on
Enable-Spoof-Source: off
Enable-TCP-Wrapper: off
Enable-Linux-Caps: off
Enable-Systemd: off

Not sure how to fix this as from what I can tell this module is supposed to be compiled in and automatically imported.
