Ah, our rsyslog has a delta, so let's stick a matching tmpfiles.d/
snippet into rsyslog.

rsyslog's postinst seems fine. I have a gut feeling that this is due to
/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/var.conf changing it back to 0755, the permissions
are wrong there.

Actually, this is not a systemd behavior but seems to be a syslog one.
1. rm /var/log/syslog
2. reboot
-> no log (under systemd or upstart)
3. touch /var/log/syslog
4. chmod syslog:adm /var/log/syslog
5. reboot
-> logs availables
The cause is that /var/log is 755 and root:syslog (I wonder why it's
7 matches
