syslog-ng is an enhanced log daemon, supporting a wide range of input and
output methods: syslog, unstructured text, message queues, databases (SQL
and NoSQL alike) and more.
Key features:
* receive and send RFC3164 and RFC5424 style syslog messages
* work with any kind of unstructured data
* receive and send JSON formatted messages
* classify and structure logs with builtin parsers (csv-parser(),
db-parser(), ...)
* normalize, crunch and process logs as they flow through the system
* hand on messages for further processing using message queues (like
AMQP), files or databases (like PostgreSQL or MongoDB).

This is commit one of a two commit set:
Reduce supported syslog-ng ports to the latest syslog-ng supported by
our upstream, oniedentity.com. Upstream does not officially support
earlier releases. This commit reduces unofficial support expectations
and allows us to rely totally on upstream for support.
This commit deprecates sysutils/syslog-ng32[4-9]. It also removes
sysutils/syslog-ng in preparation of a repocopy of syslog-ng329
to syslog-ng. The reason for this is that the real syslog-ng history
resides in syslog-ng329.

Balabit (a OneIdentity company) / syslog-ng upstream
Welcome the new syslog-ng 3.24.1. It is the default syslog-ng port/package.
Mark syslog-ng324 for deletion one year after the release of syslog-ng325.

Balabit (a OneIdentity company) / syslog-ng upstream
Welcome the new syslog-ng 3.24.1. It is the default syslog-ng port/package.
While at it, implement the newly agreed upon policy to deprecated and
remove old syslog-ng ports one year after the latest ports has been
committed. This is in cotrast to One Identity's Linux clients who have
told One Identity they would like to see three years of support. FreeBSD
users are encouraged to contact our upline, Peter Czanik, or myself
regarding their preference.
