Package: bsdutils
Version: 1:2.38.1-4
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
I *know* we had this bug already, and it got fixed at some time,
but apparently a regression was introduced and this bug shows up
again in sid: long-running logger(1) sessions do not receive an
updated timestamp for later lines:
root@ara4:~ # tail -F /var/log/syslog&
root@ara4:~ # (echo foo; sleep 5; echo bar) | logger -t baz
Feb 2 02:04:24 ara4 baz: foo
Feb 2 02:04:24 ara4 baz: bar
Compare bullseye:
tglase@x61w:~ $ (echo foo; sleep 5; echo bar) | logger -t baz
Feb 2 03:04:45 x61w baz: foo
Feb 2 03:04:50 x61w baz: bar
I use “dæmonprogram | logger -t nameofthat” quite often, and
having output with ancient timestamps suddenly show up in logs
is confusing (especially fail2ban very much dislikes that).
For the sake of completeness, the bullseye system uses
inetutils-syslogd 2:2.0-1+deb11u1, the sid system has
inetutils-syslogd 2:2.4-2, but TTBOMK the timestamp is
generated by logger(1), not the syslog dæmon (that would
be weird).
