Syslog-ng repo for Amazon Linux 2023 updated to syslog-ng version 4.12
Two years ago, I created a syslog-ng repo for Amazon Linux 2023. As I received zero feedback, I left it alone until last week. The repo is now updated to the latest version of syslog-ng: 4.12.
According to Fedora Copr download stats, my Amazon Linux 2023 repo has many downloads. However, for over two years, I received zero feedback from the community, no matter how many GitHub, e-mail or social media posts I used to ask users about their experiences and requirements. As any kind of package maintenance needs some effort, I left the repo alone without updates.
Fast forward to last week: someone responded to my post on GitHub, asking for an update. So, once I got some idle time during a longer task, I updated the repo to syslog-ng version 4.12. During another break, I disabled Java support and slog, just as in any other repository we maintain.
As usual, you can find my Amazon Linux 2023 repo at https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/czanik/syslog-ng-amazon23/ and share your feedback at https://github.com/syslog-ng/syslog-ng/discussions/4965
