Normally there are no breaking changes, and we are careful about backward= s compatibility. I could not find anything obvious in the release notes, so= I would not expect any issues upgrading. However, as always, testing with = production logs is still recommended. If you are upgrading from one point release to another one, I assume that y= ou use my Copr packages. The versioned repositories are provided for conven= ience. Larger organizations have problems with the rolling release model, a= nd it makes staying on a fixed syslog-ng release possible. Also, I do not h= ave any influence on how packages are signed, that is something internal to= Copr. Normally only the latest syslog-ng Copr repo is actively receiving f= ixes (syslog-ng48 as of right now). However, we might experiment a bit here= , I put this on my ToDo list.
