Is anything else needed to get the changes merged?

[Duncaen]

logger(1) is bad as it just sends logs into the void if the first time it tries to connect to the syslog socket fails. This should use vlogger(1).

Thanks for the feedback Duncan. Have I missed the preference for vlogger over logger being documented somewhere?

Just wanted to follow up on getting the changes in.

Thank you Duncan!
