Public bug reported:
/etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog contains
postrotate
reload rsyslog >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
endscript
which works on Upstart but not on systemd. Therefore, after logs are
rotated, rsyslog continues to write to the old files, leaving the new
files empty. It should be changed to ‘service rsyslog reload’ or
‘invoke-rc.d rsyslog reload’ or something.
