I've just updated the ulogd ebuild to handle version 0.98.

Key new feature (for me) is localtime plugin so I get a time for output packets.

Beware the iffy documentation (use the source).  If you are updating from 0.97
then a new switch has appeared (-d) to daemonize which used to be default behaviour.

Maintainers: I have updated the Changelog. Hopefully, in a suitable manner.

This is the first ebuild I've attempted so be gentle with me.  Hope it's useful.

George.

Updated startup script

I found out the hard way that ulog fails with no clues on startup if mysql is
not listening.	This works around the problem.

thanks george. i've bumped the version up, but i didn't include the mysql table
script and the mysql detection in the startup script because honestly it looked
rather hacky.

however, i've added "use mysql" in the init script to make sure it loads mysql
ONLY IF mysql exists and is added by rc-update.
