From: Changqing Li <[email protected]> By default, create-log-dirs is enabled in systemd, and a link /var/log/README will be created, point to {{DOC_DIR}}/README.logs, but, for oe, there are two problems here, firstly, DOC_DIR is packaged in another package systemd-doc, so /var/log/README is a dead link when systemd-doc is not installed, secondly, even systemd-doc is installed, when volatile log is used, DOC_DIR is a wrong relateive path, Refer [1].
So in commit [2], we disable create-log-dirs for above issue. with this change, /var/log/journal is not created, and /run/log is used, this makes systemd log always non persistent, refer [3][4]. if user need persistent log, they need to disable volatile log, and also change journald.conf, make "Storage" to "persistent". This is a behavoir change. Previously, to make systemd log persistent, user only need to disable volatile log. This commit reenable create-log-dirs to revert the behavior change, and since README is not very userful, just remove it.
