If not, then let's discuss to your initial point: Removal of syslog. For servers, syslog is indeed useful and we should continue to support it. The questions are: * Should we install syslog on the desktop by default even if the majority of users will not use it? IMHO, yes. How else can people post problems and print part of the logs in emails?
Just run systemd-journal to access the data. It's even easier to output just the relevant part.
* If not: is there a way to install syslog it as part of a server installation? At least, provide an easy clickable option in yast to have syslog installed and configured since initial system installation.
How?
What scares me is having so much power in a single application, systemd. I prefer the classical unix method of small programs doing their tasks to perfection.
It's not in systemd, it's a separate daemon. It just interacts nicely with systemd.
