Package: bsdutils Version: 1:2.25.2-6 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
The situation was reproduced by running this script: #!/bin/bash echo $$ logger -t "task3092.sh[$$]" 'Test message' The outcome was reproduced by: # ./task3092.sh 20892 # tail -1 /var/log/syslog Nov 7 08:35:36 sysmgt.iciti task3092.sh[20892]: Test message # journalctl | grep task3092 Nov 07 08:35:36 sysmgt task3092.sh[20893]: Test message The expected outcome was the message appeared in syslog only. Given that the messsage did appear in the systemd journal, the expected outcome was: 1. It had the specified tag, not one with an altered PID 2. It had a systemd journal format preamble, not syslog format No workaround was identified -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.6.0-0.bpo.1-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages bsdutils depends on: ii libc6 2.19-18+deb8u6 ii libsystemd0 215-17+deb8u5 Versions of packages bsdutils recommends: ii bsdmainutils 9.0.6 bsdutils suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
