syslog-ng3. This is a result of an email request from Peter Czanik
<czanik@balabit.hu>, upstream maintainer of syslog-ng3, to create a
syslog-ng 3.2 beta1 package for FreeBSD.
The code is basically built to work with Linux utmp, which offers the
same utility functions as utmpx, so it's very easy to support utmpx.
Just regex the source code to add the missing x.
Submitted by: ed (with modification for ut_name --> ut_user) who
obtained it from lee.
syslog-ng3 (Syslog New Generation) is a powerful replacement for the standard
syslogd. Features include:
- ability to filter messages based on content using regular expressions
- forwarding logs on TCP
If you build a package for the syslog-ng2 port, a "Latest"
link is not created; this is because NO_LATEST_LINK is set
in the Makefile.
Since the port already lives in sysutils/syslog-ng2, it
makes sense to set PKGNAMESUFFIX and remove NO_LATEST_LINK.
Then the package and directory names match and would allow
syslog-ng and syslog-ng2 packages to co-exist in the
/usr/ports/packages tree.

The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency
according to ports/INDEX-7 (5007 of them) and the ones with USE_GETTEXT
in Makefile (29 of them).

supports them. This is determined by running ``configure --help'' in
do-configure target and set the shell variable _LATE_CONFIGURE_ARGS
which is then passed to CONFIGURE_ARGS.
- Remove --mandir and --infodir in ports' Makefile where applicable
Few ports use REINPLACE_CMD to achieve the same effect, remove them too.
- Correct some manual pages location from PREFIX/man to MANPREFIX/man
- Define INFO_PATH where necessary
- Document that .info files are installed in a subdirectory relative to
PREFIX/INFO_PATH and slightly change add-plist-info to use INFO_PATH and
subdirectory detection.
