    cdr_syslog: Deprecate unmaintained module · 9e2fcb82
    Sean Bright authored
    There has been an open issue against cdr_syslog (ASTERISK~14441) about
    a race condition for 7.5 years that has never been addressed. Because
    this module is effectively unmaintained and currently broken, there is
    no sense in keeping it around.
    
    If logging CDRs to syslog is a desirable feature, it would probably be
    better to write the logs directly to the syslog server via socket
    instead of using the facilities provided by openlog/syslog/closelog.
    Doing so would address the race condition referenced in the associated
    issue.
