svn commit: r449326 - in head/sysutils: . syslog-ng syslog-ng311 syslog-ng311/files

[Cy Schubert]

This is a problem because if another port or package (that is not 
syslog-ng) requires eventlog, a user will not be able to install the ports 
or packages depending on eventlog and syslog-ng. The user will need to make 
a choice.

Can we syslog-ng's eventlog in ${LOCALBASE}/lib/syslog-ng ??

For now I've put the conflict back in and removed the dependency but I 
think that ideally if syslog-ng wants to use its own custom egventlog it 
should be in its own private directory as suggested above. This doesn't 
force people to make choices to install one or another unrelated ports 
because of arbitrary conflicts.
