Package: systemd
Version: 255~rc2-1
Severity: important

After upgrading systemd from 254.5-1 and rebooting, rsyslog failed to
start on my system.  These messages appear in the journal:

,----
| Nov 16 16:58:10 localhost systemd[1]: Starting rsyslog.service - System 
Logging Service...
| Nov 16 16:58:10 localhost (rsyslogd)[674]: Failed to create destination mount 
point node '/run/systemd/mount-rootfs/dev/xconsole', ignoring: Read-only file 
system
| Nov 16 16:58:10 localhost (rsyslogd)[674]: Failed to mount /dev/xconsole to 
/run/systemd/mount-rootfs/dev/xconsole: No such file or directory
| Nov 16 16:58:10 localhost (rsyslogd)[674]: rsyslog.service: Failed to set up 
mount namespacing: /dev/xconsole: No such file or directory
| Nov 16 16:58:10 localhost systemd[1]: rsyslog.service: Main process exited, 
code=exited, status=226/NAMESPACE
| Nov 16 16:58:10 localhost systemd[1]: rsyslog.service: Failed with result 
'exit-code'.
| Nov 16 16:58:10 localhost systemd[1]: Failed to start rsyslog.service - 
System Logging Service.
| Nov 16 16:58:10 localhost systemd[1]: rsyslog.service: Scheduled restart job, 
restart counter is at 1.
`----

This gets repeated a few times, and after five restart attempts systemd
gives up.

It should be noted that I have enabled forwarding messages to xconsole
according to the the "Logging to xconsole" section in
/usr/share/doc/rsyslog/README.Debian, and the problem is obviously in
the bind mount for /dev/xconsole.  Removing /dev/xconsole so that the
"BindPaths=-/dev/xconsole" statement in rsyslog.service has no effect
lets rsyslog start, but recreates the problem of #1053913.

Closes: 1056066
Changes:
 rsyslog (8.2310.0-3) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Drop unused --with-systemdsystemunitdir configure switch.
     It's not actually used since we install debian/rsyslog.service via
     dh_installsystemd.
   * Recommend /run/xconsole for message forwarding to xconsole.
     The recent sandboxing of rsyslog broke message forwarding to
     /dev/xconsole. It is recommended to use /run/xconsole instead and
     replace /dev/xconsole with a symlink pointing at /run/xconsole.
     Update the example files and add a corresponding NEWS entry.
