When was this decision made and who decided it? I hope it's still not too late to reconsider it.
This will get decided by those doing the work. Unfortunately pieces of the SUSE syslog package are not used by any other vendors. This is causing trouble and more trouble means more work. And this work has to be done by someone. What's the current issue? It's caused by a piece named blogd. A very, very nice piece of software which ensured over many years to create a boot log file (/var/log/boot.msg) including all messages from the beginning till the end. Unfortunately blogd doesn't work at the moment with a 3.x Linux kernel in the shutdown case well. See https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=730193 (bnc#730193). Ok, we drop the Linux kernel. ;) systemd recently got a feature named 'Journal'. See https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1IC9yOXj7j6cdLLxWEBAGRL6wl97tFxgjLUE... I hope this will address the missing feature. Cheers Lars -- Lars Müller [ˈlaː(r)z ˈmʏlɐ] Samba Team SUSE Linux, Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany
