Hello,
I'd like to add two packages to Factory, libdbi and libdbi-drivers. Both
were already available in Contrib, moving them to factory would enable
me to add database support to syslog-ng.
URL : http://libdbi.sourceforge.net/
Summary : Database Independent Abstraction Layer for C
Description :
libdbi implements a database-independent abstraction layer in C, similar
to the
DBI/DBD layer in Perl. Writing one generic set of code, programmers can
leverage the power of multiple databases and multiple simultaneous database
connections by using this framework.
And libdbi-drivers provides the actual drivers for different databases
(sqlite3, mysql, pgsql).
Both packages were around for a very long time and worked without any
problems so far.
I tested it with syslog-ng and logging to database worked fine using
libdbi and libdbi-drivers.
Bye,
