[Bug 1451096] [NEW] wrong rsyslog dependency in ubuntu-minimal

 

Public bug reported:

According to dependencies of ubuntu-minimal rsyslog is considered to be
part of minimal supported system. With the switch to systemd it's
obsolete: the journald is shipped and running anyway and it already
provides secure logging by default. IT would be better to remove rsyslog
from ubuntu-minimal dependencies (and, ideally, from default install as
well) and enables "ForwardToSyslog=no" in /etc/systemd/journald.conf -
the users who are willing to install advanced legacy logging will still
be able to do that just fine, but really does not belong to the bare-
minimum system.

** Affects: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
