Package: syslog-ng
Version: 2.0.0-1
Severity: normal


Subject: syslog-ng: Does not print program name
Package: syslog-ng
Version: 2.0.0-1
Severity: normal

As opposed to sysklogd-1.4.1-18, syslog-ng2.0.0-1 does not print the program 
name for
"gconfd" (and maybe other programs) (both packages with default configuration):

,----[ /var/log/messages, written by sysklogd (wrapped) ]---

| 3 user 'mjk-unsafe'

| /gconf.xml.mandatory" to a read-only configuration source at position 0
[...]
| Feb  4 13:02:31 pc9 (mjk-unsafe-6439): Exiting

The difference can be easily seen in a direct juxtaposition:

  sysklogd :  Feb  4 12:58:20 pc9 gconfd (mjk-unsafe-5403): Exiting
  syslog-ng:  Feb  4 13:02:31 pc9 (mjk-unsafe-6439): Exiting


Using the template

  template("$ISODATE $HOST [$FACILITY:$LEVEL] \tPROG: $PROGRAM, PID: $PID, MSG: 
$MSG\n");

the output looks like this:

,----[ /var/log/messages, written by syslog-ng with a template (wrapped) ]---

Strangely enough, the process that's called "gconfd" in sysklogd's output is
actually shown as

  /usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconfd-2

in ps's output.


To get repeated outputs of gconfd, I started

  firefox && gconftool --shutdown

after (re-)installing each sys*log* package.

And after re-installing sysklogd, I killed syslog-ng manually (that's probably
a bug in a postinst or prerm script which I'll report separately).


I chose severity "normal", as the missing program name can make debugging
difficult if the logged program is not in memory anymore, so that it cannot
be found by the displayed PID anymore.
