[Garrett Holmstrom <gholms@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Garrett Holmstrom has proposed merging lp:~gholms/cloud-init/rsyslog-programname into lp:cloud-init.

Requested reviews:
  cloud init development team (cloud-init-dev)

For more details, see:

The rsyslog config file in the source tree doesn't seem to be working properly on Fedora for some reason.  Now that the days of separate cloud-init and cloud-config executables are long past, though, we can simply tell it to filter by programname instead of syslogtag to make everything begin working again.
