app-admin/syslog-ng-3.6.1 was built with the following:
USE="ipv6 ssl tcpd -amqp -caps -dbi -geoip -json -mongodb -pacct -redis -smtp -spoof-source -systemd" ABI_X86="64"




Reproducible: Always



Expected Results:  
expected that json-c is not required is USE=-json
Comment 1 Kees Bergwerf 2014-11-19 18:38:36 UTC
same problem here.

USE="json" emerge syslog-ng

solves the problem
Comment 2 Perfect Gentleman 2014-12-16 05:12:20 UTC
the same problem here
Comment 3 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-12-16 05:50:06 UTC
re-emerge and it should be fixed.
Comment 4 Xavier Miller (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-12-16 07:49:02 UTC

> re-emerge and it should be fixed.

A revbump woulnd't be more elegant? ;)
Comment 5 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-12-16 07:53:29 UTC
the package is unstable and it's just a warning in any case so a revbump is just an unnecessary rebuild for people.
