Per former discussion, better safe than sorry - added a FFe request to
the description and subscribed the release-team.

** Description changed:

+ [FFe]
+  * (re-)introduce a feature to ensure the initial (boot time) kernel 
+    messages are preserved
+  * This existed up to Trusty (upstart) but was lost afterwards as it had 
+    no systemd coutnerpart.
+  * It is a "new" feature since we have lacked it for so many releases and 
+    worth - a hopefully simple - ack by the release Team
+ 
+  * It is not a new version or any change to the actual rsyslog code.
+    Instead it just adds a new service "dmesg" that will achieve what was 
+    lost post trusty. Therefore the potential regression to the existing 
+    function should be minimal, if anything the new service might hit 
+    issues on some unexpected environments but atm that seems unlikely.
+ 
+  * It does not add/remove Dependencies nor modify build
+ 
+  * I ahve made upgrade/install tests as well as Ahasenack doing the same 
+    on the MP that is linked.

  After upgrading to Ubuntu 15.04 Vivid, /var/log/dmesg is no longer
  updated after boot.
  
  It appears that this was previously done via /etc/init/dmesg.conf

** Changed in: rsyslog (Ubuntu)
       Status: Triaged => New

** Summary changed:

- /var/log/dmesg No Longer Being Updated
+ [FFe] /var/log/dmesg No Longer Being Updated
