Description

On SLES 11, the file /etc/sysconfig/syslog contains the variable SYSLOG_DAEMON which could be set to syslog-ng if it is installed before any other syslog. Then, the init daemon syslog will use this variable to know which syslog to start.

We should ensure that this variable is rsyslogd or empty to have a fully fonctionnal reporting on Rudder.
