Instead packagers need to override --sysconfdir configure option. So it is not broken, it was an intended change. A lot of other differences were also introduced in from 1.6.x->2.0.0, so I thought it would be ok to change it. and 2.0.3 introduces the use of "localstatedir" too. This defaults to $prefix/var which should be redefined to /var/lib/syslog-ng. Software do change, packaging/compile scripts need to be adapted from time to time. And one minor note about your message: because of the tone I played with the idea of _not replying_, but at the end I decided to respond. I might be sensitive a bit, but starting a question with "who broke this?" and mistyping the name of the developer as "Balavid" sounds a bit rude to me. -- Bazsi
