Hi, libevtlog was developed by Balabit AFAIR as a library to add support for rfc5424. Originally was created in a way that other software could use it as well, but only syslog-ng is using it. As such we received requests to merge it into syslog-ng: one less port/package to maintain. This merge was done between syslog-ng version 3.10 and 3.11. Sorry for not explaining this change along my patch.
