sysklogd (2.3.0) stable; urgency=medium
* Support for `logger -k`, early log to /dev/kmsg. Useful when logging
from early system startup scripts before syslogd has started
* Support for extracting non-kernel log messages from /dev/kmsg
* Ignore EINVAL from kernel, caused warning message at first startup
* Add support for `syslogd -C file` to use `file` for caching
the last seen kernel sequence number, default: /run/syslogd.cache
* Fix regression from v2.2.3, causing loss of syslogd log messages
like `syslogd v2.2.3: restart.`
* Fix man page, listed `-v` as verbose mode, is actually version
* Fix man page, missing documentation for `-H` option
* Fix DNS lookup handling of remote syslog servers, call res_init()
before getaddrinfo() and re-check more often than every 180 sec.
* Add option `-K` to trust kernel timestamps after startup
* Avoid asserting (exiting) on and around Jan 19, 2038, UNIX epoch
wraparound on 32-bit systems. Also, handle `EOVERFLOW` from the
gettimeofday() function in libsyslog
* Avoid NULL pointers in internal logging functions when in debug mode
* Replace `\m` with `\n` (missing newline) in `logger` usage text
* Use systemd KillMode=process
* Let syslogd use another socket when journald is active (systemd systems)

sysklogd (2.2.3) stable; urgency=medium
* Fix problem with log messages stuck in 1969. When not using libsyslog,
or the bundled logger, the syslog() API in the C library is used, which
may not necessarily set the timestamp. When sysklogd infers timestamp
it was offset by the number of years since 1969, i.e., boot_time.
* Fix problem with repeating kernel messages if syslogd is restarted.
This introduces a new state file, /var/run/syslogd.cache, which saves
the last seen/logged sequence id read from `/dev/kmsg`
* Fix log message time calculation issue on 32-bit systems.
* Fix remote kernel messages being mapped to uucp instead of user
* Fix man page syslogd(8), name of PID file (syslog.pid -> syslogd.pid)

sysklogd (2.2.2) stable; urgency=low
* Initial release.
* Fix issue with parsing /dev/kmsg time
* Fix spelling issues in syslogd and man pages, found by lintian
* Load and reload timezone, with tzset(), on init/SIGHUP.
