Title:
logger(1) continuously outputs same timestamp
Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
As per the issue created on syslog-ng's GitHub repository:
https://github.com/balabit/syslog-ng/issues/1098
When content is piped to `logger`, every message gets the timestamp of
when the logger process started. This is a regression between 14.04
and 16.04. Previously, logger would report an individual timestamp per
message.
A workaround is to let syslog create the timestamp rather than logger.
