syslog-ng: install the configuration with INSTALL_CONF

2026-08-18T13:00:51Z

/etc/syslog-ng.conf is installed with INSTALL_DATA, so it ends up world readable at 0644. The file holds the credentials of every destination that needs them, so install it with INSTALL_CONF and 0600 instead, as the rest of the tree does for configuration under /etc. Signed-off-by: Josef Schlehofer

syslog-ng: do not install syslog-ng-update-virtualenv

2026-08-18T08:13:38Z

The script creates and updates the private Python virtualenv that the Python module runs from, but the package is built with --disable-python, so there is nothing for it to do. It cannot even parse its arguments on a stock image: /usr/bin/syslog-ng-update-virtualenv: line 30: getopt: not found Error parsing arguments Signed-off-by: Josef Schlehofer

syslog-ng: alternative for logread

2024-11-24T10:10:10Z

When the syslog-ng installed it records all messages to /var/log/messages. This makes the default OpenWrt's ubox /sbin/logread useless and return nothing. The logread script was added to the syslog-ng as a shim. It's based on `tail /var/log/messages` and repeats basic options that the ubox logread have. The script is installed instead of the /sbin/logread and this is causes an error. Instead install it to /usr/libexec/logread.sh and specify as an alternative /sbin/logread. The ubox logread also needs to be made as alternative in /usr/libexec/logread-ubox. So we need to give it a separate name. The most simple and clear would be logread-shell or just logread.sh.
