Package: systemd
Version: 232-25+deb9u1
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
this might be a totally bogus bug report (because I might have missed that
this is already implemented in Debian, eg I only checked stretch and a sid
schroot, but not a real sid system…), but I really like this on Fedora
systems and I think we should have it in Debian too:
[user@fedora-25 ~]$ cat /var/log/README
You are looking for the traditional text log files in /var/log, and
they are gone?
Here's an explanation on what's going on:
You are running a systemd-based OS where traditional syslog has been
replaced with the Journal. The journal stores the same (and more)
information as classic syslog. To make use of the journal and access
the collected log data simply invoke "journalctl", which will output
the logs in the identical text-based format the syslog files in
/var/log used to be. For further details, please refer to
journalctl(1).
Alternatively, consider installing one of the traditional syslog
implementations available for your distribution, which will generate
the classic log files for you. Syslog implementations such as
syslog-ng or rsyslog may be installed side-by-side with the journal
and will continue to function the way they always did.
Thank you!

Thanks for maintaining systemd!

Changes:
systemd (251.5-1) unstable; urgency=medium
.
[ Michael Biebl ]
* New upstream version 251.5
* Install NEWS.Debian file into all binary packages.
While it increases the disk footprint a little, it ensures that NEWS
entries are reliably shown by apt-listchanges.
* Handle removal of /var/log/README.
Remove /var/log/README symlink when the systemd package is purged.
This symlink is created via tmpfiles and documents that /var/log no
longer contains the traditional syslog text files. (Closes: #877414)
* Rebase patches
.
[ наб ]
* debian/extra/kernel/postinst.d/systemd-boot: prefix with zz-
Since we explicitly (though this is hidden by indirection through
85-initrd.install) depend on /boot/initrd.img-$1 existing or not existing,
hard-order ourselves at the end. The zz- prefix matches grub.
* debian/extra/kernel-install.d/85-initrd.install: install default initrd
with versioned basename.
This fixes #1020396 in a superior way by using
$KERNEL_INSTALL_STAGING_AREA, available since systemd v251.
By just copying the file we both simplify our code, but defer to
90-loaderentry to correctly permission it, and simply never generate an
unversioned initrd in the first place! (Closes: #1020396)
* debian/extra/kernel-install.d/85-initrd.install: explicitly ignore unknown
verbs
* debian/extra/kernel/postrm.d/systemd-boot: prefix with zz-
Doesn't actually matter, but the kernel handbook says we must and we
already renamed postinst. (Closes: #1014581)
.
[ Luca Boccassi ]
* Enable firstboot, disabled by default on Debian.
Currently the first-boot conditions are not met by any Debian
image (/etc/machine-id with content uninitialized, so we can
just enable the build and ship it in the main package.
This lets image builders (eg: cloud images) tinker with it.
