Re: syslog-ng update

Thanks! I tested some of the sub-packages, but not all of them 😕 As far as I could see from https://pkgsrc.se/sysutils/syslog-ng Thomas disabled SNMP for now.

My colleagues fixed a bug I found (the tcp() source now works as expected), and I helped to upstream a patch from pkgsrc, so system() source automatically configures now log sources on NetBSD. I even prepared an update for pkgsrc. Tested in a virtual machine on AMD64 running NetBSD 9.2. My update is available at https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=""> I'm not sure if it complies with all pkgsrc rules, but it works. And this version of syslog-ng works a lot better than 3.17, currently available in pkgsrc.

Apparently it has been updated today to syslog-ng-3.34.1; I just
needed a small patch for net/net-snmp:
