Public bug reported: Bug imported from Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=837893
Package: systemd Version: 231-6 Severity: normal Since recently, log messages from programs running under the gnome session have started appearing in all logs in /var/logs, including /var/logs/kern.log, even though my rsyslog configuration has not changed, and correctly only routes kern.* there. This is very annoying since it fills the logs with messages that don't belong there, and makes running logcheck tedious. It seems this is a recent regression, since before I was able to route these messages to a low-priority log using the following rsyslog configuration: user.=info;user.=notice;\ user.=warn -/var/log/user-low.log If I look at the messages directly with journalctl -o verbose, it seems they do not set the syslog facility, which should make them end up with user facility, but doesn't. ** Affects: systemd Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Affects: systemd (Ubuntu) Importance: High Assignee: Dimitri John Ledkov (xnox) Status: Confirmed ** Affects: systemd (Ubuntu Zesty) Importance: High Assignee: Dimitri John Ledkov (xnox) Status: Confirmed ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Bug watch added: github.com/systemd/systemd/issues #5640 https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/5640 ** Also affects: systemd via https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/5640 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Dimitri John Ledkov (xnox) ** Also affects: systemd (Ubuntu Zesty) Importance: High Assignee: Dimitri John Ledkov (xnox) Status: Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1682484 Title: systemd: Logging from gnome session is passed on to all syslog facilities Status in systemd: Unknown Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in systemd source package in Zesty: Confirmed Bug description: Bug imported from Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=837893 Package: systemd Version: 231-6 Severity: normal Since recently, log messages from programs running under the gnome session have started appearing in all logs in /var/logs, including /var/logs/kern.log, even though my rsyslog configuration has not changed, and correctly only routes kern.* there.
