Hi. I was using syslog-ng 3.7 without any errors, but after upgrading
to 3.8, every day during my cron.daily, I get two copies of the message
which says
error: syslog-ng:7 duplicate log entry for /var/log/messages
I could not find any release notes to tell me what they did which would
cause this error -- anybody have a clue?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
