commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=6868a342b4cf6a0b0184a0c3040cc300a68bb86b branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master syslog-ng is built with the default buildroot flag localstatdir=/var This causes three issues: 1) syslog-ng creates two files (syslog-ng.ctl and syslog-ng.persist in /var) which shouldn't have random files generated in it. 2) SELinux expects it in it's default directory /var/run. 3) This breakes read only file systems because /var/ usually isn't mounted as a seperate filing system. Setting the buildflag to the default /var/run fixes all three of thee of these issues.
