Adding blocking relationship to BZ 2127507 (the Change tracker)

Comment 2 Peter Czanik 2022-11-11 09:16:28 UTC

Adding support for pcre2 is a work in progress upstream. I'll update the Fedora package, as soon as an upstream release supports pcre2. Most likely beginning next year.

Comment 3 Ben Cotton 2023-02-07 15:10:43 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 38 development cycle.
Changing version to 38.

Comment 4 Peter Czanik 2023-07-07 10:56:09 UTC

Finally there is some active work on it upstream: https://github.com/syslog-ng/syslog-ng/pull/4537 So, it will be part of the next syslog-ng release, due by the end of Summer.

Comment 5 Peter Czanik 2023-07-24 14:58:17 UTC

syslog-ng 4.3.0 is released, where pcre was replaced by pcre2. I just pushed it to rawhide.
