[Bug 908916] [NEW] Out-of-order syslog entries

[Daniel Richard G.]

Public bug reported:

This concerns rsyslog 5.8.1-1ubuntu2 in Ubuntu Oneiric.

I'm looking at /var/log/syslog on this system, and the file contains
entries that are chronologically out of order. The timestamps seem to
leap forward by five hours, then back by five hours, with no hint as to
why. (Note that I am in the EST time zone, a.k.a. GMT-0500, so that may
have something to do with it.)

A copy of my /var/log/syslog file is attached.

I don't know where else to file this bug, so here it goes.

** Affects: rsyslog (Ubuntu)
