Two more issues: - This is against the old version 8.9.0 which isn't even in testing any more. Can you please adjust to 8.12.0-1? (There are some patch failures) - "Replace debian/rsyslog.dmesg.upstart by equivalent systemd service to save initial dmesg into a file." - don't do that; we still need to keep the upstart job for touch. Under systemd you don't really need this as dmesg is saved in the journal. If you really want to add such a job, please just add it (and document it like that). - If you want to add/keep rsyslog-dmesg.service, please fix the unit: The After= is a no-op (unless you specify DefaultDependencies=no), the unit should be of type oneshot, and the call to savellog seems a bit pointless? I thought the idea was to keep the dmesg for the current boot only, not rotate it. Log rotation (or explicit logging) should really be a thing of the past with journal.
