Is it safe now to allow it to be upgraded ?
if you have updated to systemd 204-8, it ought to be safe.
I have.
If you have inflated logs from the SELinux accounts-daemon bug, then
rsyslog will still run the CPU to 100% for some time after the upgrade,
because it'll be writing the entire journal out to /var/log/messages;
but it will eventually complete and quiet down. Personally I recommend
pruning the journal first if you have a huge journal full of those
SELinux messages - if your system logs aren't that important to you, you
can safely just blow away the larger (over 10MB) files
in /var/log/journal and that should trim the journal down to a
reasonable size.
I chose to delete....seems to be running fine...but I'll keep an
eye on it for a while.
Thanks
