Title:
rsyslog doesn't create /dev/xconsole
Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
Triaged
Status in rsyslog package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Binary package hint: rsyslog
Looks like this was missed in the move to upstart.
This function was called in init.d/rsyslog start:
create_xconsole() {
if [ ! -e /dev/xconsole ]
then
mknod -m 640 /dev/xconsole p
chown root:adm /dev/xconsole
[ -x /sbin/restorecon ] && /sbin/restorecon /dev/xconsole
fi
}
I can't find any reference to it now. If this is old school then it should be
re
moved from the config.
