Syslog-ng errors after updating

After updating my system yesterday i got greeted by errors at boot. The system boots fine and i havent found any issues yet. The errors appear after the syslog-ng config file gets checked but syslog-ng itself starts fine afterwards (maybe a little slower then usual). Ive checked the config file but couldnt find anything.
Im using open-rc.

So far ive tried to install any of the packages which seems to have a missing shared library but the error persists.

Does anyone have an idea what causes this and how to fix it?

Syslog-ng has always been a strange thing for me with periodic issues and errors. Installed metalog and never looked back since.

any progress on this, it is 12 days now :-\

I did not notice any effects of this errors so far ( I did not dig deep in logs).
Still, this errors on boot make me feel uneasy.

I can reproduce them in terminal after boot with syslog-ng -s:

I think these "errors"  can be safely  ignored. Actually these are "Warnings". see  https://github.com/syslog-ng/syslog-ng/issues/1248 and commit 8ba71ae
nothing unusual for such(bazzar) type of software development ;)

ps if its old bug, why Artix not using alternatives like metalog?
