Package: syslog-ng
Version: 3.1.3-3
Severity: important

Hi guys,

    Starting with kernel v2.6.38-rc3, syslog-ng will break ... it's not able to 
open /proc/kmsg !
I've found the following forum thread explaining why:

Stopping system logging: syslog-ng seems to be stopped already

filename='/proc/kmsg', error='Operation not permitted (1)'
Error initializing source driver; source='s_src', id='s_src#2'
