I don't recommend running without logging. Is there actually a problem with having syslog installed? I mean, it's a standard logging interface I'd expect to see on any Debian server setup and if systemd doesn't provide it when users expect it, that's a flaw on the systemd side. RT can be configured to run with file based logging, but that's not the default. We could probably downgrade to Recommends if there was a real reason to.
