Public bug reported: systemd journald configuration in /usr/lib/systemd/journald.conf.d/syslog.conf enforces duplication of the logs into rsyslog with: ForwardToSyslog=yes
$ cat /usr/lib/systemd/journald.conf.d/syslog.conf # Undo upstream commit 46b131574fdd7d77 for now. For details see # http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2014-November/025550.html [Journal] ForwardToSyslog=yes journald has limits it can enforce, preventing disk-full issues, while rsyslog does not discriminate and just logs everything. The expectation that journald has limits is well-known in the community and folks will activate trace log level in their snaps (for example) without considering it could lead to logs filling the free disk space in the underlying system.
