Well, if the syslog.conf that we have in package/sysklogd/ is exactly the one contained in the sysklogd sources, then what is the point of having a copy in package/sysklogd/ ? We could just as well install the configuration file provided by upstream. Thomas -- Thomas Petazzoni, CTO, Bootlin Embedded Linux and Kernel engineering https://bootlin.com
