I don't like syslog, and have been using metalog quite happily for some time, but would much rather get everything using multilog which I like even more. So, I typed in "emerge gluelog" and realized quickly that this package is not maintained and should probably be masked, as it creates /etc/rc.d, and puts init scripts in /etc/rc.d/init.d, which does not exist on a modern Gentoo system. But I would like to know if the ebuild could be maintained or how else a multilog-based system could be created?
