Subject: [gentoo-server] gluelog ebuild?

1 I was browsing about the web when I stumbed across this:
2 http://64.233.179.104/search?q=cache:QHsFgaiiddIJ:www.geocrawler.com/mail/msg.php3%3Fmsg_id%3D5589243+dcron+multilog&hl=en&ie=UTF-8

4 ...which seems to hint that in Gentoo's younger days, a supported logging
5 configuration was supported using multilog from daemontools, plus something
6 called gluelog.
7
8 ...to me this seems terribly exciting. I don't like syslog, and have been
9 using metalog quite happily for some time, but would much rather get
10 everything using multilog which I like even more.
11
12 So, I typed in "emerge gluelog" and realized quickly that this package is not
13 maintained and should probably be masked, as it creates /etc/rc.d, and puts
14 init scripts in /etc/rc.d/init.d, which does not exist on a modern Gentoo
15 system.
16
17 But I would like to know if the ebuild could be maintained or how else a
18 multilog-based system could be created?

20 Cheers,
