Summary:                    syslog_ng package can no longer be installed on
Solaris 8 or 9
Description: 
I was able to install the CSWsyslogng package on Solaris 8 or 9 machines
just recently. However the latest package that's on the mirrors requires
svcadm to install, therefore restricting it to Solaris 10 only:


Do you want to continue with the installation of <CSWsyslogng> [y,n,?] y

Installing syslog_ng - A powerful syslogd replacement as <CSWsyslogng>

## Executing preinstall script.
Disabling svc:/system/system-log:default

pkgadd: ERROR: preinstall script did not complete successfully

Installation of <CSWsyslogng> failed.
ERROR: could not add CSWsyslogng.
