the log viewer only displays system logs, it's not the software
recording those

Title:
Log File Viewer does not log "Process Name"
Status in “rsyslog” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
The gnome "Log File Viewer" does not log the Process Name (or
Application Name) that generated the log item. For example, if an
outbound internet connection is blocked and this event is logged, only
the "ID" (i.e., PID) is shown in the report. But the PID is useless
because it is ephemeral and does not live past the session. Users are
left with no way to learn what Application or Process was responsible
for generating the log item.
The "Process Name" should be listed in log items instead of the PID.
