[arch-dev-public] new syslog-ng 3.x opinions?
Hi guys while looking at those 2 bugs, i just bumped to new syslog-ng 3.x series. http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/6980 http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/10776 Changes: - adopted new syntax to config file - disable stats logging by default, it just floods everything with useless stats. Main issue: The syntax of config slightly changed and all users with modified syslog-ng files need to manually move in the changes from .pacnew file. Aaron are you fine with bumping it? Do we need a install message here? greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa@archlinux.org

Hmmm there was some reason I didn't want to jump up to the 3.X series, but that may have simply been because I wanted to switch to rsyslog instead... I'm fine with this, but could you add an install message that says something to the effect of "Config file syntax has changed, make sure to update your config file"
