Interestingly it seems a bit complicated to have a system without syslogd.
Without syslog, i.e. the client part. A quick grep in the source shows that at first sight, FEATURE_SYSLOG is only used in two places, libbb/verror_msg.c and libbb/info_msg.c, to guard calls to syslog() and vsyslog(). Makes sense to me. If I haven't selected any app that can actually use syslog, it's sane to not pull in the syslog() implementation code. It's a cool optimization and there's not much room for simplification here. syslogd, the server part, is a whole other enchilada, but it can be disabled via a simple option in the Kconfig, so no problem there either. -- Laurent _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list busybox@busybox.net http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
