Tue Apr 13 08:40:57 CEST 2010 - pczanik@fang.fa.gau.hu

- upgraded to version 3.1.1
- removed patches, which were made redundant by 3.1.1
- enabled pcre, modified the 'less-static' patch
- NEWS from 2.0 to 3.0
  * Version 3.0 of syslog-ng supports the new syslog protocol
    standards by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).
  * Log statements can be embedded into each other, making it
    possible to design complex log paths. That way for example
    the results of a filter can be sent to multiple destinations,
    or it can be sent to a destination unchanged, and partly
    rewritten for the other destination.
  * The encoding of source files can be set for proper character
    conversion (internally syslog-ng represents every message in
    UTF-8).
  * The syslog-ng application assigns a unique message
    identification number to every log message, making it easy
    to detect if any messages are lost.
  * The syslog-ng application can read, process, and rewrite
    structured messages (e.g., Apache webserver logs) using
    templates and regular expressions. Both messages with fixed
    field sizes and fields separated with delimiters (e.g.,
    comma-separated values) are supported.
- NEWS from 3.0 to 3.1
  * Support for patterndb v2 and v3 format, along with a bunch
    to new parsers: ANYSTRING, IPv6, IPvANY and FLOAT.
  * Added a new "pdbtool" utility to manage patterndb files:
    convert them from v1 or v2 format, merge mulitple patterndb
    files into one and look up matching patterns given a specific
    message.
  * Support for message tags: tags can be assigned to log messages
    as they enter syslog-ng: either by the source driver or via
    patterndb.
    Later it these tags can be used for efficient filtering.
  * Added support for rewriting structured data.
  * Macros and name-value pairs got a little tighter integration,
    in filters where syslog-ng 3.0 was limited to only use
    name-value pairs, with 3.1 you can also use macros.
  * Enhanced dynamic name-value performance by a factor of three.
  * Some parsers got additional features: NUMBER is now able to
    parse hexadecimal numbers, ESTRING is now able to search for
    multiple characters as the end of the string.
  * Added non-standard and non-portable facility codes (range
    10-15), decouple syslog-ng facility name information from
    the system used to compile syslog-ng on.
- new features, which are not enabled because of /usr dependency:
  * TLS support
  * logging to databases

-------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jan 15 15:31:16 CET 2010 - mt@suse.de

- Applied POLLERR handling fixes for logreader/logwriter causing
  100% CPU usage e.g. when a UDP destination is down (bnc#541802).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Feb  4 04:12:31 CET 2009 - crrodriguez@suse.de

- use shared libevtlog and libwrap that are available in /%{_lib}
  still uses static glib2.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Sep  3 14:28:18 CEST 2008 - mt@suse.de

- Moved /etc/logrotate.d/syslog-ng content to klogd (in syslogd
  source) package, that provides the /etc/init.d/syslog script.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Sep  3 13:49:37 CEST 2008 - mt@suse.de

- Added patch to avoid getpwnam/getgrnam calls with on negative
  values, e.g. on -1 to skip file chown/grp/mod. This calls has
  caused an ldap search request on systems using nss_ldap and if
  the ldap server was running on the same machine and tryed to
  log, a deadlock happened (bnc#414955).
- Applied a backported patch allowing to disable permission and
  ownership changes on existing files, when the owner/group/perm
  option in the file/pipe destination definition is set to -1.

  not send any hostname (bnc#49521).
- Reimplemented patch to update own hostname on SIGHUP/reload
  (bnc#116466).
- Reimplemented -a <log socket> feature (fate#300891).
