rsyslog 7.3.9 (v7-devel) released
We have just released v 7.3.9 of the rsyslog development branch. The most important feature of this release is the capability to digitally sign log files. This is done via RFC3161. It also contains some other feature enhancements as well as bug fixes. Note that 7.3.9 is almost feature-complete and can be considered a beta. It is our goal to release a new v7.4 stable within the next few weeks.

Changelog for 7.3.9 (v7-devel)
Version 7.3.9 [devel] 2013-03-27
- support for signing logs added
- imudp: now supports user-selectable inputname
- omlibdbi: now supports transaction interface
if recent enough lbdbi is present - imuxsock: add ability to NOT create/delete sockets during startup and
shutdown
closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=259 - imfile: errors persisting state file are now reported
closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=292 - imfile: now detects file change when rsyslog was inactive
Previosly, this case could not be detected, so if a file was overwritten
or rotated away while rsyslog was stopped, some data was missing. This
is now detected and the new file being forwarded right from the
beginning.
closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=228 - updated systemd files to match current systemd source
- bugfix: imudp scheduling parameters did affect main thread, not imudp
closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=409 - bugfix: build problem on platforms without GLOB_NOMAGIC
- bugfix: build problems on non-Linux platforms
- bugfix: stdout/stderr were not closed on forking
but were closed when running in the forground – this was just reversed
of what it should be. This is a regression of a recent change.
