For the record, I have already tried to do a debian
package of syslog-ng, and have requested this via
our bug tracking system. See
http://www.debian.org/Bugs/db/35/35586.html
Joey hasn't responded yet; still waiting. I have a setup
that diverts sysklogd's init-script, I will send my
.diff.gz to you in private mail.
Are you a Debian developer also? If so, I suppose you
will be making packages of your software yourself?
Otherwise, I can function as a "rubber stamp", PGP-signing
your sources for Debian.
