 Posted: Tue Sep 28, 2004 12:25 am Post subject: Sysklogd or syslog-ng ? |
 |
|
| I made a gentoo installation and once I emerged syslog-ng, just after doing a rc-update add syslog-ng, system said that it didn't need it since sysklogd was already providing logging. Do I just have to unmerge my syslog-ng to get rid of this message each time my system boots ?? |

not really but i would do so just to avoid being annoyed and the possibility of something on the uncanny side occurring. Actually it is basically siple to rectify
| Code: | | rc-update del syslog-ng default |
should prevent anything from occurring.
I could be incorrect inmy assumptions

I tryied:
| Quote: |
rc-update del syslog-ng default
|
But it still stays. I unmerge the syslog-ng and now my thought is to maybe delete the file in /etc but not 100% sure. Someone can confirm with me.
| Code: |
>>> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache...
* Caching service dependencies...
* Service 'sysklogd' already provide 'logger'!;
* Not adding service 'syslog-ng'...

Actually I'm wondering where sysklogd comes from, it hasn't always been like this, has it?
rm /etc/init.d/sysklogd should solve the problem... |

| Sounds like it may have been an error in dependencies when the 2004.2 stage 3 tarballs were created - one rogue app probably asked for virtual/logger which installed sysklogd. |

| Thing is I don't want to remove sysklogd, I want to remove syslog-ng. Don't forget that I unmerge syslog-ng. |

| So how about rm /etc/init.d/syslog-ng? Portage doesn't delete stuff in /etc/ by itself... |

Thats exactly what I just did and it seems that it worked. Are you familiar with mozilla-thunderbird ? It seems that I can play sound when new message arrives. I browse for the wav I wanted but does work, any Idea ?? All my sounds works no.1 in everything exept for that. Seems that the sounds that thunderbird browse for is change to a url format once selected
