This bug no longer exists in Ubuntu 16.04, as the rsyslog rotate script
(inherited from the Debian package) handles both systemd and sysvinit
based systems:

$ more /usr/lib/rsyslog/rsyslog-rotate 
#!/bin/sh

if [ -d /run/systemd/system ]; then
    systemctl kill -s HUP rsyslog.service
else
    invoke-rc.d rsyslog rotate > /dev/null
fi

As such, I'm updating the status on this to Invalid.


** Changed in: rsyslog (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid

Title:
  logrotate file fails on all but sysvinit

Status in rsyslog package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  The logrotate file supplied can not work with Upstart or systemd
  because it calls `service rsyslog rotate` -- neither support custom
  actions. Instead a custom script to send SIGHUP to rsyslog depending
  on the init system should be used. It can just use

  * `initctl reload rsyslog` with Upstart
  * `systemctl kill --signal=SIGHUP --kill-who=main rsyslog.service` with 
systemd
  * `/etc/init.d/rsyslog rotate` with sysvinit
