I don't understand it, since eventlog is specified in the dependencies of syslog-ng, but without eventlog... checking pkg-config is at least version 0.16... yes checking for GLIB - version >= 2.10.1... yes (version 2.20.5) checking for EVTLOG... no configure: error: Cannot find eventlog version >= 0.2: is pkg-config in path? !!! Please attach the following file when seeking support: !!! /var/tmp/portage/app-admin/syslog-ng-3.1.2/work/syslog-ng-3.1.2/config.log Compiling with app-admin/syslog-ng-3.1.2 USE="pcre ssl tcpd -caps (-hardened) -ipv6 (-selinux) -spoof-source -sql -static"
reopen with that config.log file please.

Reopening.
what's your /usr/lib/pkgconfig/eventlog.pc file look like?
Sorry. Terribly stupid bug report. I was trying to run the test suite by using `ebuild /usr/portage/app-admin/syslog-ng/syslog-3.1.2.ebuild test` without checking that the dependencies were actually installed. Sorry for wasting your time. :S
