[syslog-ng] Things to consider when selecting latest syslog-ng version to linux

[Nagy, Gábor]

Hi,

I hope I understood your question, but to disable compiling java modules
you need to use the "--disable-java" configure option or the "*enable-java*
=no".
*enable_java *with underscore is the variable's name I think.

Regards,
Gabor
