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.
