Dear Maintainer,

/var/log/error is flooded with messages of the form:

Mar 6 22:17:27 arden syslog-ng[2174]: Error invoking seek on file; filename='/dev/kmsg', error='Invalid argument (22)'

There appears to be a fix upstream. Could this be applied as a patch to the Debian package, please?

Upstream bug: https://github.com/syslog-ng/syslog-ng/issues/5159
Upstream fix: https://github.com/syslog-ng/syslog-ng/pull/5168

Thanks!

Andrew
