That's not needed. The proposal is to replace the syslog-ng port with the contents of syslog-ng329 and deprecate the others. Those using sysutils/syslog-ng will see no change. Those using older versions will need to replace syslog-ngNN with simply syslog-ng. I could be wrong but it's my impression that the Linux community has embraced rsyslog over syslog-ng. We at $JOB have. -- Cheers, Cy Schubert <cy.schub...@cschubert.com> FreeBSD UNIX: <c...@freebsd.org> Web: https://FreeBSD.org NTP: <c...@nwtime.org> Web: https://nwtime.org The need of the many outweighs the greed of the few. _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
