Subject: syslog-ng: wrong timezone for MARK timestamp
Package: syslog-ng
Version: 2.0.9-4
Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
(rbl.debian.net is too strict that I had been rejected all the mail account
except this)
syslog-ng logs wrong timestamp for periodical timestamp aka "MARK".

Syslog-ng seems to be writing UTC timestamp for "-- MARK --".
(This machine's timezone is +0900, for dual-boot with windows)
In the source code(logmsg.c), "MARK" message is built with LP_NOPARSE option;
this make it skip for log_msg_parse() to localtime handling.
One of the solution is to change option for MARK.
(I'm using this patch, but I don't know so much about problem caused by this
patch)

This has been fixed a long, long time ago. The intial import of
syslog-ng 3.1 in early 2007 already has this fixed.
