rsyslog packages

Thanks to some volunteers, rsyslog is also available in package form on some distributions. All available packages are listed below. If you would like to maintain a package for a new distribution, please mail me at rgerhards@adiscon.com. Any help is *deeply* appreciated. While I create the core daemon, the package maintainers are really filling it with life, making it available to the average user. I am very grateful for that!

This list has last been updated on 2007-07-06 by Rainer Gerhards. New packages may appear at any time, so be sure to check this page whenever you need a new one.

Red Hat has recently begun to build RPMs for rsyslog. The URL changes, but a good place to look for them is at freshmeat's rsyslog info page. Please note that the Red Hat RPMs do currently not include MySQL functionality. If you need that, you need to compile from the source tarball (which honestly is quite easy).

Almost any Linux

Bennet Todd maintains packages that should work on almost any Linux. He keeps a current i386 tree. There is also a PPC tree, but that one is not paid much attention for (anyhow, it is known to typically work well, too).

Please visit http://bent.latency.net/bent/, select the relevant tree and then do a search for rsyslog.
