sysklogd: correct the syslog link and conf file
This commit fix [BUGID #482]
Two issues cause bug 482:
- firsty, there are two version of syslog: sysklogd and busybox.
the busybox one is directly installed as /etc/init.d/syslog,
and the sysklogd one is installed by update-alternative. the
update-alternative will thus fail because the /etc/init.d/syslog
(busybox one) already exist and not a link. so the correct way
is to install busybox one by update-alternative, the layout will be:
/etc/init.d/syslog.busybox
/etc/init.d/syslog.sysklogd
/etc/init.d/syslog -> syslog.busybox or
/etc/init.d/syslog -> syslog.sysklogd
- secondly, sysklogd default conf is not comply with poky. Its dir /var/adm/
does not exist. Check the debian /etc/syslog.conf and find it is more
sophiscated and suitable, so port /etc/syslog.conf from debian.
