Package: syslog-ng
Version: 2.0.0-1
Severity: grave
Syslog-ng is dying repeatedly after logrotate runs.
I believe that in most cases it continues to log to the original file,
despite it having been rotated, though I am not 100% sure of this.
Where it does continue running, it dies when the 2nd rotate occurs,
where the logfile is gzipped.
When trying to reproduce it manually, sending kill -HUP causes syslog-ng
to die shortly after it gets a new PID.
I am able to consistently reproduce this.
No data is written to the new logfile until I manually restart syslog-ng
For now, as a workaround, I have altered the post-rotate command to
restart syslog-ng rather than reload.
