And if this reassurance is not convincing there is https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2014/02/msg00772.html With my rsyslog (and systemd maintainer) hat on, let me add a few remarks here: We still do install rsyslog by default and will continue to do so for the forseeable future (for reasons like the one you mentioned). So your text-based logs won't be gone with the switch to systemd. Let me repeat that: Jessie will have text-based logs, nothing in that regard changes. Actually it does: systemd can feed additional information into syslog (e.g. from daemons stdout/stderr), so you'll get a syslog with more complete information when running under systemd. As for journald, we currently don't enable persistent logging in journald (persistent logging can be done by creating a folder /var/log/journal with the appropriate permissions). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
