Package: syslog-ng

Severity: normal

Hi !

When /etc/eventlog.conf exists and contains "[hello]" (for example),
syslog-ng segfaults at start.

Here is the end of strace output:

I did not find any documentation about /etc/eventlog.conf file. I have
found this bug because such file was created by an unrelated
application.
