broken dependencies in ceres
rsyslog depend on liblognorm2 in devuan ceres, but on liblognorm5 on debian sid, so, installing it in devuan ceres, and possibility even in ascii, is now broken in devuan as liblognorm2 isn't available anymore.

I confirm the problem in devuan Ascii. Rsyslog is not installable because there's no installation candidate for liblognorm2.
According to this[1], in Debian Stretch the rsyslog package depends on liblognorm5 which is available in Sid and Ceres.
We need to update dependency in rsyslog.

This probably just needs a rebuild of the package to pick up modern dependencies, I'll request access.

Any updates on this? I can confirm the dependency is still broken.
-
I am rebuilding it now. Will keep you posted.

I've pushed version 8.24.0-1+devuan1 that's based on upstream 8.24.0-1 presented in Stretch now.
Please accept my request: !1 (closed)

I've switched to Devuan Ceres about 1/2 hour ago, this is the only problem I've got so far. Impressive job out there!

hi there, this has been sitting for a while now. Can we involve @freehck to maintain his package here and try build it on our CI, so that this problem is solved for ascii? it is rather urgent if we want to release it and it would be of great help. If @freehck has no time we can still start from his package. The merge request here !1 (closed) should be re-made to keep the package history. I can provide better instructions if needed.
