I think rsyslog is ready to be released to both oracular-updates and
noble-updates.

I have confirmed that the test plans were performed correctly, the
package built on all arches, and there are no autopkgtest regressions.
In particular for this bug, I also confirmed that rsyslog's own tests
now pass on s390x.

  [ Impact ]

  There is a consistent autopkgtest failure in s390x only, where the
  logcheck test fails because there is an unexpected boot notice in the
  output[1]:

  136s such mail, you can either uninstall the logcheck package or modify

rules may need updating

  At some point I thought it was related to the new apparmor rules that
  now allow reading some systemd files, but the test last worked, and
  started failing, with the same rsyslog version, so nothing changed in
  rsyslog itself. A migration-reference/0 would also fail, and then this
  failure would not block migration/release. But that also means the
  other, valuable, working, and important, tests would not be looked at.

  On its own, this does not warrant an SRU, but it's being bundled
  together with other fixes.

  [ Test Plan ]

  Since this is an autopkgtest fix, the test plan is that all
  autopkgtests must pass on all architectures, with no bad-test hint or
  migration-reference/0 help.

  [ Where problems could occur ]

   The fix is restricting the log lines that logcheck will analyze.
  Specifically, it's restricting them to the current system boot. If
  there were errors logged before the boot, logcheck will not see them.
  Note, however, that logcheck is already being fed just rsyslog
  messages from a particular timestamp that is AFTER the testbed
  rebooted (notice the journalctl filtering), so it's already a subset
  of all messages.

  
  [ Other Info ]

  This was only seen on s390x, and the root cause was not found.

  Last pass:

  First failure after that:
  8.2412.0-2ubuntu1     systemd/257.3-1ubuntu2 glibc/2.41-1ubuntu1

  It also fails with other triggers, simpler ones:
  8.2412.0-2ubuntu1     krb5/1.21.3-4ubuntu2            2025-02-26 03:56:06 UTC

  And a migration-reference/0 run from a few days before also failed, with the 
same error:
  8.2412.0-2ubuntu1     migration-reference/0           2025-02-20 01:14:47 UTC
