23. By Michael Terry

22. By Michael Terry

* debian/rsyslog.postrm: Don't delete syslog user
* debian/rsyslog.postinst: Stop sysklogd from deleting the syslog user
  when removed. LP: #401056

21. By Scott James Remnant (Canonical)

FFE LP: #427356.

* Replace init script with multiple Upstart jobs.
* debian/control:
  - Bump build-dependency on debhelper for Upstart-aware dh_installinit

20. By Michael Terry

* Fix log file ownership issues when HUPing an unprivileged rsyslog
  LP: #407862
  - debian/rsyslog.conf: Set $FileOwner to syslog
  - debian/patches/deroot.patch: Always chown output files, since we may
    not be able to read them on a HUP otherwise.

19. By Michael Terry

Merge from debian unstable

Remaining changes:
- Run as rsyslog:rsyslog
- Allow reading /proc/kmsg when non-root
- Cleanly upgrade from sysklogd

debian/patches/deroot.patch: Don't allow using the klogctl function to
read klog messages. Rather, allow /proc/kmsg or nothing, since we have
special support for reading /proc/kmsg while unprivileged.

[ Neil Wilson ]
debian/rsyslog.init: Set blocksize for dd (LP: #407862) and restore
reload init argument to original lightweight reload

18. By Loïc Minier

* Prefix Vcs-* fields with "XSBC-Original-" as we don't use git for the
  Ubuntu packages.
* Strip local from rsyslog's postinst as it shouldn't be used outside of
  functions; LP: #401060.

17. By Michael Terry

* Run as rsyslog:rsyslog (LP: #250827, LP: #388608)
  - debian/control: Depend on adduser
  - debian/rsyslog.postinst: Create syslog user
  - debian/rsyslog.postrm: Delete syslog user on purge
  - debian/rsyslog.conf: Use DropPriv config fields
* Allow reading /proc/kmsg when non-root
  - debian/rsyslog.init: Spawn a dd instance that shovels the /proc/kmsg
    data to a pipe that rsyslog can read (based on Martin Pitt's similar
    change to sysklogd).
  - debian/patches/deroot.patch: Support a KLogPath config field
    to change where the klog plugin looks and only start input modules
    after we drop privileges, as reading when root interferes with
    future reads as syslog.
  - debian/rsyslog.conf: Use KLogPath field to point to dd pipe
* Cleanly upgrade from sysklogd
  - debian/default.conf, debian/rsyslog.conf:
    Break out the default rules into their own config file
  - debian/rsyslog.install: Install it in /usr/share/rsyslog
  - debian/rsyslog.postinst: If present, copy /etc/syslog.conf into
    /etc/rsyslog.d/default.conf. Then merge our own default.conf

15. By Michael Biebl

* debian/rsyslog.init
  - Pass proper return code to log_end_msg.
* debian/rsyslog.conf
