I've checked: xconsole already takes data from /dev/console. The difference is that there was a special rule in rsyslog to write specific output to the /dev/xconsole pipe. Now with journald this is gone. Something adequately needs to be found to replace it. Reassigning to systemd team.
On a new 13.2 installation there is no /dev/xconsole. It seems that the /dev/xconsole pipe is exlusively created by rsyslogd using /usr/sbin/rsyslog-service-prepare. And apparently rsyslogd is the only one using it. Is there really a need for /dev/xconsole if rsyslogd is not installed or would xconsole just display /dev/console then? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
